What the price buys
A kid’s build your own is $5.70 at the median with any protein, guacamole or queso, a kid’s quesadilla $4.60 with cheese only and $5.20 with a protein; each includes a side of kid’s chips or fruit and an organic milk, chocolate milk or apple juice. The cheapest adult entree is $9.80, so the kid’s meal is $4.10 to $5.20 less and carries the drink and the side an adult order does not. The printed sheet: “Your choice of meat, guacamole, or queso, and two toppings to go with a pair of crispy corn or soft flour tortillas. Includes fruit or kid’s chips, and organic juice or milk.” “With a side of rice and beans. Includes fruit or kid’s chips, and organic juice or milk. Addition of protein is extra.”
The calories, summed
The chicken build your own on this site (a pair of soft tortillas, 2 oz of chicken, kid’s rice, kid’s black beans and the kid’s chips) sums to 600 calories, 30 g of protein and 895 mg of sodium; the sheet gives a kid’s build your own as 350 to 810 calories and a kid’s quesadilla as 530 to 710. The drink adds 100 calories (organic milk) to 160 calories (chocolate milk).
Can an adult order one?
The brand’s offer terms count kid’s meals apart from entrees (“Kids’ meals and single tacos do not count as an entrée purchase.”), and the ordering menu sells them to anyone who orders; the portions are the kid’s ones, 2 oz of protein where the adult portion is 4 oz.
