  • 266 grams of sugar in ONE DRINK!

    according to men's health - the worst drink in America is the Baskin-Robbins Large Heath Bar Shake

    Heath Bar Shake

    And i'm sure it tastes darned good! lol - but seriously - i'm just thinking diabetic coma!!!! I'm not sure I'll have that much sugar total this YEAR now that I've given up sugar! (ok, maybe in the total of a year, lol - 1 g or so a day - but ya'll know what i mean).

    And, I'm sure somewhere in my past I've had one of these. And if not that, I KNOW i've had their peanut butter cup smoothies.

    wow.

    And they call it a Health Bar Shake??? LOL!! Let me guess....the idiot who named this drink got a promotion and a ridiculous bonus! I can't imagine consuming that now. I'd need an ambulance on standby. I'd wake up 2 weeks later!

            No, 'cause before giving up aspartame, the diet Dr. and I loved adding chocolate, especially chocolate whipped cream- homemade, of course!

                Let's see.....there are 4 grams of sugar in 1 teaspoon. So that drink contains 66.5 teaspoons or about 11 tablespoons or about 3/4 cups of sugar or little less than 1/2 pound of sugar.
