drinking sugar

http://www.sugarstacks.com/beverages.htm

juice has been lying to us.

apple you son of a bitch.

so the larger the coke, the more sugar cubes?

ok so the middle stack of sugar cubes belong to the right bottle, and the right stack belongs to the bottle in the middle i think

why hello

when i was a kid i drank one of these filled with code red in under 15 minutes and then threw up immediately. merit badge not earned.

My mom always used to flip her lid when she saw our neighbors' kids walking around all day with endless sippy cups full of "healthy! natural! APPIE JOOS!" I assume they never developed adult teeth.

but it's acutally corn syrup? I mean i guess they are both "sugars" but that is sucrose and it's actually fructose im ocd about this stuff so i find it irritating

(Not all carbohydrates are created equal)((there are different kinds of sugars))

They all make you a fatass.

probably a most fitting thread to post this:

it's a little dated and likely jazz if you're a professional internet user, but

lustig's info on carbohydrate metabolism is awesome!

he's been called out on a few inconsistencies by some internet wizards

but nothing that really brings his argument down. sugar in our food

is fucking OUT OF CONTROL.

hordes of people every day eat that the panera bread i work at and order low fat

smoothies under the impression that it's actually healthy.

what they don't know is i'm in the back blending up a smoothie concentrate that consists of:

water, sugar, fruit puree

in that order exactly on the label. its sugar water with some blended fruit added to it for flavor,

and it costs just under 4 1/2 dollars. 50+ grams of sugar water and yogurt down the hatch.

diet coke is 0 sugar

0 sugar units?

no sugar!!! :sup:

Their is a big difference between how your body processes the carbs in vegetables, fruits and non-refined foods and refined sugars (white trash carbs) found in soda, white bread etc.

Understanding that starts with the GI system.

I meant sucrose and fructose both make you a fatass.

American iced tea is atrocious

yeah, agreed. i just go for unsweetened tea, its delicious

i love drinking these at school. when you're just walkin around rocking the bottle, people will think you're drinking a 40, its great. since its unsweetened it doesnt make your teeth feel like shit, and it has just enough caffeine to keep you jazzed through the day.

Tejava is good to have around.

PS Blame the entire South for over-sweetening everything in America. It's like "can I get a turkey sandwich?" "Sure, 6 packs of sugar or 7?" down there.

No sugary drink beats water in any way, shape or form!

I try to drink unsweetened tea. I usually just drink water.

Or beer.
