#1: Worst Kids' Meal in America
#7: Worst Chicken Meal
The Cheesecake Factory Kids Southern Fried Chicken Sliders
820 calories
N/A g fat (10 g saturated)
2,049 mg sodium
When the Factory unveiled its kids’ menu in 2009, its chief marketing officer said it was an effort to offer meals that fit kids’ unique “portion size requirement.” On the surface, these sliders fit that bill. But if their size is humble, their nutritional numbers are not. These deep-fried slabs of chicken carry two days’ worth of a child’s sodium and more calories than a kid would get from eating 17 Chicken McNuggets.
