A probe into the culinary offerings of the UK's favourite fast food restaurants has found "shockingly high levels of salt in some family, individual, and children's meal options", which in many cases could result in kids receiving well over their maximum daily recommended limit in just one sitting.
That's according to Consensus Action on Salt and Health (CASH), which surveyed a total of "346 individual food and drink items and 264 advertised meal combinations"from Burger King, KFC, McDonald's and Pizza Hut.
CASH's full press release is available here (Word doc). It has an (Excel) summary of the meals tested here, and a breakdown of all individual food items probed here (also Excel).
