🍔 Burgers most protein per calorie
Burger joints ranked by protein per calorie — smash burgers to double stacks. Top 200 items across 19 burgers chains, ranked by grams of protein per 100 calories. Items under 50 calories are excluded (condiments and diet sodas would otherwise top the chart). Kids' meals and toppers & add-ons (e.g. "Shrimp, for Salads") are hidden by default — use the filters to include them. Every item shows its source and vintage year.
