Food for Thought

I found this while surfing last night. Link here.

Here's a sample.


Minute Maid Apple Juice vs. Dunkin Donuts:
One 15.2 fl oz bottle of Minute Maid Apple Juice has 52 grams of sugar, the same amount of sugar in about 25 Dunkin Donut sugared munchkins.

Hi-C Poppin’ Lemonade vs. Krispy Kreme:
One 6.75 fl oz juice box of Hi-C Poppin’ Lemonade has 26 grams of sugar. In such a tiny kid-sized box it has 7 grams more sugar than a Krispy Kreme chocolate iced custard filled donut.

Minute Maid Orange Juice vs. Fruit Loops:
The sugar in one 15.2 fl oz bottle of Minute Maid Orange juice is equivalent to 4 cups of Kellogg’s Fruit Loops (48g).

Sobe Citrus Energy vs. Pixy Stixs:
You could eat about 29 sugar-filled straws of Pixy Stixs for the same amount of sugar in one 20 fl oz Sobe Citrus Energy drink (63g- about 12 ½ teaspoons).

Tropicana Twister Orange Strawberry Banana Burst vs. Tootsie Rolls:
One 20 fl oz bottle of Tropicana Twister has 64 grams of sugar, just about as much sugar as 21 Tootsie Roll candies.
