The "venti" (a pint) Starbucks Signature Caramel Hot Chocolate made
with oat milk but topped with whipped cream had the most.
It contains 23 teaspoons (93.7g) of sugar and 758 calories, which
Action on Sugar says is as much as three cans of Coca-Cola or four
white chocolate and strawberry muffins.
Next was Caffe Nero's Grande Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate made
with skimmed milk - containing 15 teaspoons (nearly 60g) of sugar
and 503 calories....[good job they used skimmed milk
]
Third highest in sugar was a venti Starbucks Gingerbread Latte made
with oat milk - containing 14 teaspoons (56.6g) of sugar and 523 calories -
the same as 17 custard cream biscuits.

You would have to be mentally ill to pay 3 notes for a cup of coffee when you could make it yourself for pennies.

Sugar is pure energy, just what you need to recharge your batteries or to start the day.
Contrary to what we are led to believe, sugar does not readily turn to fat. In fact very little of it turns to fat. Taking fructose is the quickest way to recharge your energy cells if they're run down from exercise. |

93.7 g of sugar is an absolutely insane amount.

There's loads of sugar in fruit.
Yet why don't they tell us about that? |

With all the education and information on products readily available people still choose to consume sugar in insane amounts.
Like smoking and drinking you can only do so much. Let them do it. What's the problem? |

In the last 30 years or so, sugar consumption crept back down. During that period, it was highest in 1982, when Britons were eating around 42 kilos of refined sugar per head per year, but it fell by 10 per cent, or around 4 kilos, during 1980 to 2000.
... We still eat around 0.56 kilos of sugar a week – around 30 kilos a year. https://www.channel4.com/news/how-sweet-is-our-love-q-a In other words, sugar consumption has been falling dramatically for decades, to the extent that we consume 29% less of it now than we did 37 years ago. And that was a time when most of us were as thin as rakes compared with now. The difference between now and 1982? Back then we actually carried the stuff home from the shops. Now, thanks to supermarket trolleys or online shopping, we don't even carry it to the bloody car. |

depends on the cocoa content ... u need a certain amount to offset the bitterness but people get hysterical about sugar content without taking this into account

By:
same with lemon .... you need a ton of sugar with that

This argument isn't about sitting down in nice premises it's about the added sugar. Lots of people take it away. No matter what some simpleton's say excessive sugar is very bad for you.

It is a stunning amount of sugar though, picture 23 teaspoons of it in front of you, you'ld puke at the thought of eating that in one go.
|
|
By:
it's in with the cocoa so it's not quite the same ...people won't notice it as such,although excessive for sure .... people couldn't eat 23 teaspoons in a normal drink .
these companies don't care about sugar/salt ...they will add what sells the drink |

How much is excessive? Thick as two short planks, he doesn't even know what kind of sugar he's talking about. |
|
By:
Any kind of excessive sugar is bad for you you fool.
|
|
By:
I'll give you four types: glucose, sucrose, fructose and milk. Excess in all of them is bad for you. You work out what excess means.

How can glucose be bad, your body runs on it. Although yours probably runs on alcohol considering the stuff you write on here. |
