We measure every order against the median lunch: 23 g of protein in 467 kcal. An order that gives at least that much protein for no more calories “beats a member's lunch”. Read the food-log study.

Where These Numbers Come From

Source: McD Nutritional Info, Calorie & Allergen Chart, April 2024, linked from mcdonaldsindia.com and covering West and South India. We read every row on 3 Oct 2026.

McDonald's in North and East India is run by a different franchise and lists its figures at mcdindia.com. They match this chart for most shared items. A few differ, such as the Spicy Paneer Wrap (675 kcal for 250 g there, 727 kcal for 270 g here) and the Veg Surprise Burger (313 kcal there, 356 kcal here).

Our check: an item's published calories should match its protein, carbs and fat (4, 4 and 9 kcal per gram) within 15%, or within 10 kcal for an item under 50 kcal, where rounding matters most. We left out rows that miss, because one of their numbers must be wrong:

Veg Nuggets, 2 pc. Listed with 13 g of protein, double the 6 g of the 4 piece, so one of the two rows is wrong.

Does McDonald's India have a high protein burger?

It sells a Protein Plus slice.

The slice came after the April 2024 chart, so it is not in these numbers. Without it, the Triple Cheese Burger (chicken) has the most protein per calorie of any burger here.

A regular fries is 225 kcal, a medium 318 kcal and a large 449 kcal. A medium fries and a medium Coca-Cola together add 469 kcal, about as much as our members' median lunch of 467 kcal.

Can I eat McDonald's while losing weight?

Yes, if the main is the order and the sides are not. Pick a burger or chicken from the top of the protein list, skip the fries and the soft drink, and count it in the day. No item gives 23 g of protein for 467 kcal or less, our members' median lunch. The closest is the Chicken McNuggets (9 pieces), with 22.6 g in 382 kcal.

Where do these McDonald's numbers come from?

From McDonald's India's own nutrition chart (April 2024), which covers West and South India. We read every row on 3 Oct 2026. Restaurants in North and East India are run by a different franchise and publish their own figures at mcdindia.com; most shared items match. We are not connected to McDonald's.
