Sonic Jr. Burger?

[FedUpWithFat]

For lunch today I had a Sonic Jr. burger, minus the ketchup and bun. I've looked online everywhere and can't find out how many carbs are in the Jr. size bun so I can deduct it and the ketchup from the 27 carbs the whole thing has. Does anyone know?

Here is their website

If you click on the link at the bottom to 'Nutrition' you will be taken to their table and then can scroll right down to the bottom for a toll-free phone number to call and ask them.
Maybe you can suggest to them that they should list the bun and ketchup counts seperately so people on special eating regimes can work out their own carb counts?

Someone correct me if I am wrong but, why are you worried about it at all. There are no carbs in a burger, and any vegi's you had on it should count towards your 3 cup total.

Lauren, you never really know what you're getting with fast food meat. Some fast food places (i.e. Mcdonalds) add sugar to the "ground beef". Other places (i.e Taco Bell) use "fillers", in their ground beef. (not that taco bell serves burgers, but they use ground beef with the taco salad). So just because it's a bunless burger, doesn't mean that there are no carbs. There are too many additives in fast food to say they are carb free or legal for sure.

Sonic meat is the real deal. I know. I lurrrrve it! :joy

[Miss Phode]

Cleo, how do you know? I'm not saying you're not correct. Just curious.

[cleochatra]

I know the meat supplier for the Sonic in town. :joy It pays to ask who the supplier is for the beef!

[Miss Phode]

That's awsome that sonic uses a local supplier. Good to know, thanks.

I just have to say... mmm.. sonic.. *drool*

[cleochatra]

Aphex-- I'd definitely still ask, but I know the taco place down the street gets their meat from the same source as Sonic does, and it's local (across the street). Maybe other places use other things, but I'd have to say it's real beef, otherwise there'd be no quality control on flavor.

Still, as you say, it's always best to ask... and their cheese is processed, so accounting for that is important.

I just wanted to know the exact count of everything in it so I could add it as a custom food in FitDay. I'll have to ask next time I'm at Sonic I guess.

Call Sonic! Fast food companies are not exactly darlings of the media, so i'm sure they'll be prompt and nice and all that great stuff to find your answer.
