A slice of the 11 ranked chains, with Subway in the middle. Higher is better: nine nutrients to encourage against three to limit, per 100 calories. Meal count is on every row because a chain scored on three items is easy to flatter.

This table is nutrition, not price. Store-level prices are live for Burger King, Chick-fil-A, Chipotle, Domino's, McDonald's, Papa John's, Popeyes, Taco Bell, and Wendy's, not yet for Subway; the chains we do price are at which fast food is cheapest.
