Eight Surprising Things With More Sugar Than a Donut

With donuts, at least you KNOW you’re stuffing your face.  One glazed donut has 10 grams of sugar.  But here are eight things you might not know have even MORE sugar than that . . .

1.  A Whopper from Burger King has 12 grams of sugar.  So a little more than a donut.  A Quarter Pounder with bacon from McDonald’s has about the same.

2.  A six-inch meatball sub from Subway . . . also 12 grams.

3.  A side of coleslaw at KFC . . . 14 grams.

4.  An Activia blueberry yogurt . . . 16 grams, which is more than one-and-a-half donuts.  Obviously there’s other stuff in there that’s GOOD for you though.

5.  A large latte at Starbucks . . . 17 grams of sugar.

6.  Eight ounces of orange juice . . . 20 grams, which is like two glazed donuts.

7.  A 20-ounce Vitamin Water . . . 33 grams of sugar, which is almost three-and-a-half donuts.

8.  A 12-ounce can of Coke . . . 39 grams of sugar, which is a gram less than you’d get in FOUR donuts.  A 16-ounce bottle of Snapple Peach Tea also has 39 grams.
