GYG sauce calories

These are the creamy and sweet sauces, richest first. The last column puts them on the same footing by showing Calories per 10 g, because the serves differ in size. Herb Mayo (vegan) is 57 Cal per 10 g, while Jalapeño Ketchup is 11. Herb Mayo is listed as vegan; see the vegan GYG menu for the rest.

GYG salsa calories

Salsas are the cheapest flavour on the menu: none of them goes above 9 Cal for the whole serve. The pickled jalapeños and the chipotle salsa bring more sodium than their size suggests.

How your sauce changes an order

The clearest example is chicken tenders, where the sauce is part of the order. Two tenders come to 273 Cal with Ketchup, 302 Cal with BBQ sauce, 356 Cal with Honey Habanero Ranch, 440 Cal with Chipotle Mayo. The 167 Cal spread comes from the sauce alone.

Swapping the cheese in a taco for Herb Mayo adds about 17 Cal and removes 2.1 g of protein, which the calculator applies automatically. If you are working to a calorie target, the under 500 calories list and the low calorie meal plan show where a sauce fits and where it tips an order over.
