Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have access to advanced home cooking. Nevertheless, they occasionally opt for fast food from the chain In-N-Out, according to Vanity Fair.
The couple frequently visits a restaurant along the route between their home and Los Angeles. According to People, their order is so familiar that the staff recognizes it.
High calorie content
Prince Harry told People that his menu consists of the following: “I order two double-doubles, animal style, fries and a Coke! And that's just for me! Meg gets the cheeseburger and fries with sides of jalapeños. I just stick with ketchup and that special sauce of theirs. So good!".
A closer look at the meal shows it is far from light. Health Digest reports that a single double-double burger contains around 610 calories.

When extra ingredients such as sauce and onions are added, the number increases further. Fries and soda also contribute significantly.
In total, the meal can reach around 1,700 calories or more, which is high for a single meal.
Possible alternatives
There are, however, healthier options on the menu. Business Insider points to a version without a bun, where lettuce is used instead.
One can also choose fewer sauces or a sugar-free soda to reduce calorie intake.
According to KGET, experts recommend that this type of food should only be eaten occasionally.
The meal stands in stark contrast to Prince Harry’s otherwise active lifestyle.
