Takeout side: a written restaurant-style recipe for bacon, egg and cheese on a roll. Estimated for a typical restaurant portion. Restaurants vary.

At home: computed from USDA FoodData Central, per person. Home cost at US average prices (September 2026); your store will differ.

How the takeout side is estimated

Takeout restaurants don't publish one standard recipe, so we estimate a typical portion. Where the USDA's What We Eat in America survey database (FNDDS) has the dish, we use its per-100 g values and a stated portion. Where it doesn't, we write a restaurant-style recipe with its portion assumptions and compute it with the same engine as the home build. More on the method
