So you're telling me I can get my daily vitamin C if I drink just 13 cups?
Yeah that sounds right.
America. 🦅
I had to stop drinking milkshakes once I started counting calories because of this kind of thing. Like, I knew it was bad, but I didn't know it was this bad. 😬
Fellow recent calorie counter since beginning of June. I've lost 10 lbs so far. I plan on continuing to do this even after I've met my goal
For reference, 1 litre of ice cream has about 180g of sugar in it. This milkshake is approx 0.95L and 263g, so 1.54x more sugar than straight ice cream.
(I wouldn't recommend eating a litre of ice cream all in one go either)
... I want one
Americans be eating like they have universal healthcare but we actually do in my country
They kind of suck. That's the real travesty with these franchise crimes against cardiology, it's all cardboard with high fructose corn syrup drizzle.
It tastes good, right, but also... Shallow. Literally just a shitload of sugar and fat, nothing unique to it.
These sorts of things usually taste better in the first three spoonfuls than anything that comes after.
Does it actually taste good though? Sure, ice cream is good. But nearly double the sugar and that ice cream turns into a vile mouth assault.
Call me a 12 year old in the body of a 30 year old, but "explosion of sugar and fat" is still my go-to for desserts and my pick whenever I have a cheat day
Never much cared for "complex" or "acquired" taste desserts. Even the sourness of cheesecakes displeases me.
If I'm consuming enough calories that I'll spend the next week paying the bill with interest, it better taste like I'm being brutally assaulted by a bag of sugar.
Bruh they didnt label the trans fat with a percentage because the recommended intake is 0g 💀
That is a HUGE milkshake. It's a quart.
This is beyond major celebrations like graduations or windfalls, but for tragedies like break-ups and subprime mortgage crises.
Completely acceptable the day after Trump wins the election. In fact, get two.
I pray to the universe that that last scenario won't happen, but I'm totally doing it now if it does.
Is this for real? I've been keeping track of my own calorie intake for months and my highest record for total calories consumed in one day was 2670. I can't imagine what it is like to eat that many calories on top of something else.
It is very real. Or rather, it was. They reduced it a bit somewhere down the line.
I've looked it up and it says 1440 calories for this particular shake. I think they removed the cream top and the crumbled cookies, judging from photos, and I guess they may have added water or something to cut down that many cals.
1440cal is close to the daily average intake of a woman. That is a very, very hearty meal
Crikey. You could run a marathon after that and still have a calorie surplus. Is this actually real?!
Yes :(
Wtf. How can anyone eat that? It would be like dropping a bomb in my stomach.
If there are any non-Americans seeing this thing and thinking, "What's wrong with Americans‽" this is not a normal thing for people to consume here in the US. I will never have that drink. Not because I'm controlling myself for my health, but because I would be too repulsed by that much sweetness and heaviness. This is made for a specific portion of the population: those that are struggling with eating healthy. Of everyone I know, I can only think of two people that could even consume that thing, and both of them have a poor relationship with food.
People in the US drink/eat stuff like this all the time, it’s why they are overweight. Not everyone, but a not insignificant number of people.
I drink too many of these and am a healthy weight! I'm just unhealthy because I drink those instead of having actual food so Im malnourished (I exaggerate but holy fuck I don't know how someone can have that with a meal and finish both,I never can)
It's a whole day's worth of maintenance calories for a medium-to-big active male. I sure hope you couldn't eat a whole meal on top.
True. I do usually burn 1-1.5k Calories 5 times a week running and the ones I get aren't quite this big so it's not ludicrous, but definitely not good for me. Seems to be roughly balancing out, I'm a hair over 6 ft and bounce between 145 and 155 lbs
I hear you, I’m relatively very healthy, but for a period of time was having something similar to this but probably less extreme a couple times a week. By US standards people would think my weight was normal at that time, but for me I was overweight. Unless you’re burning very high amounts of calories (sometimes I do) these kinds of items have a big impact on anyone’s weight.
Why the hell is there 1.7 grams of sodium in this???
Probably comes mostly from the cookie part of the Oreo. Everything else is excessive, and that's like the least excessive part.
To make it taste better.
What do you mean? It has vitamins!!
It should be a crime to sell that
How is there fiber in that
Microplastics.
Heck yes, hit half my protein goal in one go
Isn't that enough energy for the whole day?
i'm quite confident most people (who aren't used to stuffing themselves to a pathologic degree) would be unable to finish a third of this horrid concoction.
The general number is 2000 kcal per day for an adult with a normal amount of physical activity iirc, most people split their caloric intake into 3 meals, so that's ~700 kcal. A third of this thing is ~900 kcal.
Fucking horrid.
I shoot for 1500, so that's nearly two days for some.
I read calcium as cadmium 💀
Eh idk what there's to get riled up about. If they're being open with the calories content, I don't mind drinking this once in a while just for the heck of it
This thing exists but people were bitching at me for having one beer after i get off work yesterday....
