How is a Frappuchino like a Big Mac?

London : United Kingdom | 4 months ago  
Views: 32

Faced with the choice, would you have a Frappuchino, or Supper?

The BBC article "Iced coffees a 'meal in a drink'" tells the story.

The so-called little indulgence on your daily commute can have more calories than a Big Mac... and some fries.

Many people who would look down their nose at a bottle of soda -- because of its empty calories -- may not stop to think of the content of their coffee.

Whipped Cream, whole milk, sugar... the calories add up pretty quickly.

Can you still drink them? Sure you can.

Just remember to lighten up on some of the other rich food you enjoy -- or maybe swim a few more laps at the pool -- when you do.
