Burger King Spicy Nuggets

Update: We reviewed it! Click here to read our review.

Burger King is again offering 10 pieces of its Chicken Nuggets for $1.49, but this time you can choose between the original variety or the chain’s new Spicy Chicken Nuggets.

The nuggets are made with white meat chicken and coated in a spicy homestyle breading. They’re available at participating locations for a limited time, while supplies last.

Also, to troll, I mean, to celebrate the launch, guests named Wendy will receive one free 10-piece order of Spicy Chicken Nuggets from noon on October 13 with a valid ID at limited restaurants in Los Angeles, Miami, and New York. (Wendy’s recently discontinued its spicy nuggets.)

A 10-piece serving has 530 calories, 37 grams of fat, 7 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 55 milligrams of cholesterol, 1420 milligrams of sodium, 28 grams of carbohydrates, less than 1 gram of sugar, and 20 grams of protein.

FAST FOOD NEWS: Taco Bell Crispy Chicken Quesadilla

Taco Bell Crispy Chicken Quesadilla

With all of Taco Bell’s Crispy Chicken technology, I’m a bit sad its new Crispy Chicken Quesadilla is not made using two flour tortilla-sized discs of chicken.

Instead, it’s similar to the Double Crispy Chicken Quesadilla that came out in 2015. While that one used Taco Bell’s original Crispy Chicken strips, this one uses the chain’s Naked Chicken Chips. That’s the only difference.

Along with the chicken, the limited time menu item also features a three cheese blend and creamy jalapeño sauce, all of which is sandwiched between two flour tortillas that’s then grilled.

It’s available by itself or as part of a $5 box that includes a regular taco, a Doritos Locos Taco, and a drink.

It has 650 calories, 37 grams of fat, 13 grams of saturated fat, 0.5 grams of trans fat, 75 milligrams of cholesterol, 1480 milligrams of sodium, 51 grams of carbohydrates, 5 grams of fiber, 3 grams of sugar, 26 grams of protein.
