This is going viral again because it's that time of year








This popular Dunkin’ drink has the same amount of sugar as 14 donuts



quote:

“My friends, this is a Pumpkin Swirl Frozen Coffee, who the fu— thought it was a good idea to put this on the menu, because this drink has 185 grams of sugar in here,” Parrish began in the clip.

He then showed a visual of just how much sugar that is equivalent to, as he filled up a small cup with the crystals — 46 teaspoons, he said.

“I’ll give you another perspective,” he continued, pulling out a large box of glazed donuts from the fast-food chain.

“The amount of sugar in there is equal to 14 glazed donuts,” he said. “Plus there’s no pumpkin in here, it’s artificial flavors. There’s 12 mentions of sugar and high fructose corn syrup in here, there’s 930 calories and 194 carbs.”

How else are we going to keep up the title of “fattest country in the world?”

Letting people eat what they want is now considered “woke”?

I don't go to Starbucks much unless I'm on the road -- when I do, I've been stunned at the amount of girls buying these sugar bombs. No wonder everyone is fat.

Thanks for confirming it’s a moronic Twitter handle.

Somewhere there is an Accounts Payable clerk complaining that she doesn't lose weight and doesn't know why

Sorry it offended you so much. Perhaps you should get out of the corner chair of your hotel room and take a walk while your wife's bull takes a nap.

That's crazy, I would feel like total shite after drinking something like that from all of the sugar. We're doomed.

I can’t do the big sugary drinks like that. It literally hurts my stomach.

That said, I can reasonably get a Pumpkin Spice Latte for a couple hundred calories when my calories for the day allow it by modifying it. There’s nothing stopping people from enjoying and not getting a 600+ calorie drink.

But I was told ruminant meat, eggs and real butter are the problem? The FDA says this is fine to eat, you are fake news.

I drank less than that for meal replacement, trying to keep weight ON during my tonsillectomy recovery.

WAY LESS

The calories and other nutritional values are required to be listed. Customers are informed of what they are ingesting when they order it. If they decide to order that garbage and put it in their bodies anyway, that’s their right.

FYI this is coming from someone in the Mecca of Dunkin. I have one in walking distance from my home and I’ve never set foot in it. Absolutely disgusting.
