How to compare prices and nutrition fairly
Match the product
Compare a burger with a burger, a chicken sandwich with a chicken sandwich, and drinks at the same size.
Match the whole order
Record whether fries, side, sauce, and drink are included or separately priced.
Use current sources
Confirm the item, nutrition, allergen, hours, and final price in the brand’s current local menu or app.
Separate promotions
App-only discounts, bundles, and limited-time offers should be labelled apart from regular listed prices.
