Harmful Drinks in America

Top twenty worst drinks in america - with pictures showing the equivalent amount of junk food. WARNING - the following will make you extremely hungry.

1. Worst Beverage in America
Cold Stone PB&C (Gotta Have It size, 24 fl oz)

2,010 calories
131 g fat (68 g saturated)
153 g sugars

Sugar Equivalent: 30 Chewy Chips Ahoy Cookies

In terms of saturated fat, drinking this Cold Stone catastrophe is like slurping up 68 strips of bacon. Health experts recommend capping your saturated fat intake at about 20 grams per day, yet this beverage packs more than three times that into a cup the size of a Chipotle burrito. But here’s what’s worse: No regular shake at Cold Stone, no matter what the size, has fewer than 1,000 calories. If you must drink your ice cream, make it one of the creamery’s “Sinless” options. Otherwise you’d better plan on buying some bigger pants on the way home.


Drink This Instead!


Sinless Oh Fudge Shake (Like It size, 16 fl oz)

490 calories
2 g fat (2 g saturated)
44 g sugars
