Served as is, the taco weighs in at 420 calories, 11 grams of fat, and 29 grams of protein. Using their fancy nutritional chart, I knocked off the oils and brought it down to 360 calories. Not too shabby.

Unfortunately, just one damn taco is 1,262 mg of sodium. But hey, it could be much, much worse.
