This Baylor University news article about the prevalence of dollar menus at fast food restaurants quotes UTMB student Anita Nash. "A typical ‘value meal' can have anywhere from 1,000 to 1,200 calories, even before it's ‘super-sized.' This means that a person can easily get more than half of a total day's caloric need in one fast food meal," Nash said.
