TRKY Burger Info

Straight from the Hungry Girl mouth:


Hey Hungry Girl,

Your recipes have helped me survive this healthy-eating thing. I want to know your take on the new Carl's Jr. Turkey Burger. I looked at the stats online and they're a bit scary -- 23 grams of fat. I was wondering if some special ordering could improve the stats enough -- or should I just skip it?! Thanks!

Hi Stacy,
You're not alone. Everyone wants to know more about
those turkey burgers. Because let's face it: Having "under
500 calories" isn't terribly impressive for a single fast-food item,
especially when it packs a ton of fat. Here's the deal: CJ offers
three versions of its Turkey Burgers. The least fattening option
is the Teriyaki Turkey Burger, with 470 calories and 14 grams
of fat (PointsPlus® value 12*). Still pretty steep! The Carl's Jr.
 people don't provide the full breakdown of nutritional stats from
each ingredient on their website, but they were awesome
enough to provide us with that very valuable info!!!
SHOCKER ALERT: In the regular 490-calorie, 23-grams-of-fat
Turkey Burger, 109 calories and 13 grams of fat come
from mayo alone! WHY DO IT?! The bun contributes 206 calories and 3 grams of fat. So if you order the regular Turkey Burger without mayo, it'll have 381 calories, 10g fat, and a PointsPlus® value of 10*. If you skip the mayo and order it on a lettuce wrap instead of the bun, a.k.a. "Low Carb" style, it'll have just 175 calories, 7g fat, and a PointsPlus® value of 4*. How awesome is that!?! P.S. Hardee's (sibling restaurant to Carl's Jr.) has slightly different varieties of these Turkey Burgers, but you can do the whole lettuce bun/no fatty condiments trick there as well. Okay, now I'm hungry!

Hardee's Turkey burger

I have been asked a gagillion times what the pts plus would be.  Well i remembered to look it up.

here goes:

Fat--17

carbs--47

fiber--4

protein--31

total pts plus  12

Everybody is raving that it is great and filling.  well, i have not tried it yet.  12 pts plus is a lot for me for one meat, BUT if i only eat half, cut the mayo. (assuming it comes with mayo)  plan to have a lite pts plus lunch and b'fast.  OK,  Another BUT, 12 pts for a meal would be fine if i use lots of power Foods the rest of the day.  For sure no fries!!!! with that burger!! (I have learned to skit them anyway).
