WORST DRINK IN AMERICA
Baskin-Robbins Large Chocolate Oreo Shake
2,600 calories
135 g fat (59 g saturated fat, 2.5 g trans fat)
263 g sugars
1,700 mg sodium
Is this the worst drink on the planet? All signs point to yes. First off, it has an ingredient list that reads like an organic chemistry final. Those 70-plus ingredients conspire to pack this shake with more sugar than 29 Fudgsicles, as much fat as a stick and a half of butter, and more calories than 48 actual Oreos. Oh, it also has 3 days’ worth of saturated fat and, most bizarre of all, as much salt as you’ll find in 9 bags of Lay’s Classic potato chips. Need more proof? Let’s hope not.

Comment by ijoitem July 9, 2009 @ 9:36 amNo wonder there are so many obese people in your country. I’m amazed at how many more wide loads you see in N. America than you do in Europe.

Comment by umstrum July 9, 2009 @ 9:56 amwhat a scary scary drink.. like a symbol of everything that’s wrong about fast food culture.
Yikes! That’s hardcore.

Comment by touchingjoy July 9, 2009 @ 10:01 amAlso, it’s more than your whole GDA amount of calories in one cup!
Comment by eleonoraonline July 9, 2009 @ 10:17 amOuch, i’ll rather eat 5 hamburgers rather than this
Comment by ThePro July 9, 2009 @ 10:24 amUnbelievable. I’ll be staying far, far away from this one.
Comment by Kellene July 9, 2009 @ 10:33 amWhy is America so much fascinated with calories and fat and sugars and stuff? Go to Somalia or Ethiopia and shed your stuff!

Comment by matheikal July 9, 2009 @ 10:35 amWell, honestly, I don’t know what you’re complaining about. It seems to me that this beverage is absolutely marvellous. Just one of these a day and you don’t need to even think about eating for the next 36 hours. Such a boon in this day and age!

Comment by catalystonline July 9, 2009 @ 10:42 amIn this case WORST means MOST DELICIOUS, right?
Comment by thejamminjabber July 9, 2009 @ 11:06 amI was so horrified to read this I quoted you at desertsunflower.wordpress.com… I don’t know how to do “pingbacks.” (I’m still new to this).
I think New York City was on to something when they required nutrition information to be on menus. No one would ever eat this.
Comment by stacy310 July 9, 2009 @ 11:12 amThat is absolutely insane. I can understand the sugar and the fat content, but why is there so much sodium I wonder?
