Burger King adds healthier kids meals

Burger King has expanded the number of items on its Kids Meal menu that comply with its new nutrition criteria for children.

The addition of these three new meals now makes the total that meets the company’s Positive Steps program four. The meals are part of the company’s pledge through the Council of Better Business Bureaus' Children’s Food and Beverage Advertising Initiative that calls for the advertising to children younger than 12 only meals that contain no more than 560 calories, less than 30 percent of calories from fat and no more than 600 milligrams of sodium,plus some other standards.

The first meal they added last summer consisted of meal includes macaroni and cheese, Apple Fries, dipping sauce and fat-free milk. The three new meals are:

  • a two-pack of BK Burger Shots with Apple Fries, caramel dipping sauce and apple juice
  • a hamburger, Apple Fries, dipping sauce and apple juice
  • four-piece chicken tenders, Apple Fries, dipping sauce and fat-free milk
