You know me loves me coffee!

And I’m pretty particular about it.

Redneck Latte all the way…Goooooooo Waffle House.

I was cruising the internet recently and ran across some other coffees that might be yummy, but aren’t so great for you.

Let’s start with Dairy Queen -

DQ Moolatte!

Dairy Queen Caramel MooLatte.

Lovely to look at, and tasty I’m sure, but what’s in it?

870 Calories, 27 grams of fat, and 112 sugars.

Ouch!  That’s three times the calories of a small chocolate ice cream cone. 

Or this one -  Baskin Robbins Cappuccino Blast Turtle.

Baskin-Robbins

This puppy has 960 calories, 37 grams of fat, and 75 sugars.

Moving on UP – and they don’t get any better -

Krispy Kreme

Our friends at Krispy Kreme, and I do mean friends…the best donuts ever…make the Krispy Kreme Lotta Latte Chiller.

Or killer as it should be called.

1050 calories, 40 grams of fat, and 97 sugars.

Most of the calories we rack UP while eating in “coffee shops” isn’t from the food, it’s from the coffees.

So, you don’t like it black, there’s cream and sugar – minimal calories if used moderatly.  Or Splenda, or Equal, or Sweet-n-Low.

And what’s wrong with milk – huh?

A cup of coffee in its raw, natural state has 5 calories, and the added benefit of metabolism-boosting caffeine actually makes coffee a good weight-loss supplement.  So, take that Fen Phen!

You know where to find me if you have any questions!

Redneck Latte!
