Calories in 16, 20, 24, 36 and other counts

Chick-fil-A sells Chick-fil-A Nuggets in boxes of 8, 12 and 30. Any other count means ordering more than one box, so the total depends on which boxes you pick. Each row names the exact order, and every figure is Chick-fil-A's own published number for those boxes, added together — nothing here is estimated.

Where a count has two rows, both are real orders and both totals are correct — Chick-fil-A's box figures don't scale exactly per piece, so different ways of reaching the same count land a few calories apart. Some counts can't be ordered at all: nothing adds up to 2, 4, 6 or 10, or to any odd number. The smallest box is the 8-count, at 250 calories. A dash means Chick-fil-A doesn't publish that figure for at least one of the boxes in the order, so the total isn't known.
