When you’re watching your food intake, things like this can seem like a delicious treat, but they are quite literally lethal. Take the Baskin Robbins Heath Shake Large as a case in point. Delicious? Sure looks that way. Nutritious? For a great black bear that is planning on going into hibernation for 6 months, yeah it’s probably okay. For a normal person, not so much.
Caloric intake? 2310 Calories. That’s kilocalories (1000 calories=1 Calorie). There’s no typo there: two thousand three hundred ten calories. Here’s how you make it: Start out with 108 g animal lard, and mix in 266 grams of sugar, add 35 g of meat protein, sprinkle some vitamins A & C, and add a dash of iron.
So, I was curious how many Weight Watchers (R) Points (R) there are in this sucker. I found out, turning to my friend ipointswatcher.com (it looks better on an iPhone), that it has about 55 points. I’m allowed 33 points on WW. So, that one delicious drink will cost me eating for the next two days. Maybe I should learn how to fast!
