HEALTHY OPTIONS — WHAT TO KNOW
The lightest dishes on the McDonald's menu are the starting point for a lighter order. Pop Tops Water at ≈ 0 kJ is the lightest dish on the menu, and the salads, sides and grilled items around it are the next-lightest. Compare dishes on kJ before you order — the difference between the lightest and the heaviest dish on this menu is thousands of kJ.
Grilled beats fried on kJ, and a salad beats a bundle. That is the pattern across the whole McDonald's menu — 290 items across 16 categories — and it holds for burgers, chicken and sides alike. A grilled chicken item with a salad is lighter than the same chicken fried, with chips, in a bundle.
HEALTHY OPTIONS — HOW TO USE IT
Sides and drinks add kJ fast. A meal that starts light can end heavy once chips, a sauce and a sweet drink are added — and the kJ figures for those extras are in the same menu as the mains. Check the extras before you add them, not after.
Water is the lightest drink on the menu, and it is free of kJ entirely. A soft drink, a shake or a sweet tea can add as much kJ as a side — so the drink choice is worth the same check as the food choice.
HEALTHY OPTIONS — MISTAKES TO AVOID
Do not trust a ‘healthy’ label on a fan list. This site does not label dishes healthy on its own authority — it names the lightest, plant-leaning dishes and explains how to check preparation with the store. The kJ figure is the check, and it is the chain's own figure where the chain publishes one.
A bundle usually beats ordering the same dishes singly on price — but not always on kJ. A bundle built for sharing can carry more kJ than the same dishes ordered singly, because it adds sides and drinks. Compare the bundle's kJ with the singles' kJ before you decide.
HEALTHY OPTIONS — BEFORE YOU ORDER
Before you order, pick the lightest dish first and build around it. Pop Tops Water at ≈ 0 kJ is the lightest dish on the menu, and the salads, sides and grilled items around it are the next-lightest. Compare dishes on kJ before you order — the difference between the lightest and the heaviest dish on this menu is thousands of kJ.
Decide on the extras before you order the main. Sides and drinks add kJ fast, and a meal that starts light can end heavy once chips, a sauce and a sweet drink are added. Water is free of kJ entirely — and a soft drink, a shake or a sweet tea can add as much kJ as a side.
If you are ordering for a group, divide the pack's kJ by the people it feeds before you compare it with a single. A bundle built for sharing can carry more kJ than the same dishes ordered singly, because it adds sides and drinks — and the per-person kJ is the figure that matters, not the pack total.
The heaviest dish on the McDonald's menu is the Macca's Bundle for 6 at ≈ 25,716 kJ. If you are ordering for one, the singles are the lighter choice; if you are ordering for a group, divide the pack's kJ by the people it feeds before you compare it with a single.
Protein does not mean light. A high-protein dish can still carry a lot of kJ — a protein bowl with a creamy sauce, or a double burger with cheese, can be heavier than a plain grilled chicken item. Check the kJ figure, not the protein figure, when you are choosing light.
Sauces are the quiet kJ. A dipping sauce can add hundreds of kJ to a meal that was light without it — and the sauces are priced and listed with the rest of the menu. Ask for the sauce on the side, or skip it, and the same meal gets lighter without getting smaller.

Yes — franchise stores set their own prices, so the figures here are pickup prices from the chain’s official Australian ordering site. Franchise pricing means small local differences, and delivery prices are higher than pickup.

What is the cheapest item at McDonald's?

What does ≈ mean?
A figure with ≈ in this guide is one the chain does not list — it is the closest figure we can give.
Prices on this page are pickup prices. Prices vary from store to store, and delivery runs higher. Where McDonald’s lists no price or kJ for a healthy options item, this page shows a figure marked ≈, and the note under the first table explains what ≈ means.
