Ever been at a restaurant and Googled something on the menu to find out how many calories it would cost you? You’re not alone.
You already know what the highest-calorie meals are at popular chain restaurants, as well as the saltiest. But when it comes to counting calories, which foods are people most concerned about ordering? On Wednesday, Google released their annual Year in Search data, the top search terms that spiked in 2015 compared to the year before. One of those categories was the Top Trending Calorie Searches—a mix of the restaurant menu items, supermarket buys, and general foods that people were most curious about this year. Here, the ten most-searched for foods on the list, along with nutritional information for each item.

Taco Bell’s popular Grilled Stuft Nachos (essentially a large tortilla filled with beef, sour cream, cheese, and jalapeño sauce) returned to the fast food chain’s menu this past spring. The portable nachos were only available for a limited time and as a result, Taco Bell no longer has their nutritional information on the website. However, the nachos clocked in at 570 calories per order.

5. Little Caesars Bacon Wrapped Deep Dish
In February of this year, the fast food chain announced that they would be releasing a bacon-wrapped version of their popular Deep Dish pizza. The item was only available for a limited time, so its calorie counts are no longer available on the Little Caesars website. However, according to multiple news outlets, each cheesy, bacon-wrapped slice contained 450 calories. This number makes sense given the calorie counts listed by Little Caesars for their regular Deep Dish cheese and Deep Dish pepperoni pizzas are 320 and 350 calories per serving, respectively.

According to the company’s website, one serving of the basic Four Cheese Original Rising Crust pizza contains 310 calories.
