The delicious burger contains 440 calories, 44.5 grams of protein, 28 grams of carbohydrates and only 19 grams of fat.

The McDonalds baguette quickly became famous after featuring in the popular TV show.
McDonalds has re-released the sandwich in French branches thanks to its popularity, but as it’s not available in Australia yet the homemade version will have to do.
In the new season of the show Emily runs the marketing team for McDonalds’ latest release – the McBaguette.
‘Did you know the McBaguette from Emily in Paris is a real thing? But they don’t sell it in Australia,’ Bec said.
To make the recipe the fitness coach prepared a small baguette, shredded lettuce, Bernaise sauce, Jarlsberg cheese and lean beef mince.
