Why this score
a satiety boosterExceptional fullness per calorie — but at only 15 kcal per 100 g, it can't fill you up on its own. Its power is making a meal bigger and more filling at almost no calorie cost; pair it with protein.
Three routes to fullness — one is enough

Percentages are the share of calories from each macronutrient.
The serving weight is worked out from McDonald's own two sets of figures — what one serving contains, against what 100 ml contains — so it is their number, not our guess.
