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.
Great! You only need 12 to get your daily vitamin c
Edit: damn I just saw the serving size, 32 fl.oz? I seem to remember that there's 16 Oz to a pound, so I get 32 is about 0.9L? And you need to drink 12 each day? GTFO I might as well just keep eating fruits and vegetables
I read calcium as cadmium 💀
Mmmmmmmmmmm cadmiumm 🤤
Reminds me of the interview with Rob McElhenney where in order to put on the weight necessary to play ‘Fat Mac’ he asked his assistant to buy a gallon of ice cream every morning and leave it on the counter to melt so that he could drink it in the afternoon.
Basically, you can drink a lot more calories in a day than you could ever realistically eat.
Roughly five and a half days of sugar in a bucket! (~550% DV, if they were to try to estimate it which there’s good reason not to)
huh that seemed low to me I thought it'd be more days so I checked and got nearly nine didn't realise america had a higher daily recommended limit for sugar it's only 30g here in the uk
I wouldn't eat it, even if it was 0 calories.
That is more calories than I can eat in an entire day to maintain my current weight. Just looking at it gives me anxiety.
Heck yes, hit half my protein goal in one go
It should be a crime to sell that
Jesus I got diabeetus from just reading this.
Shit, and here I thought a giant chocolate Oreo shake from an ice cream store would be healthy. Egg on my face I guess.
I'm assuming where they say 'calories' they mean kilocalories?
In which case, what the hell?
Correct. In America, "Calories" and "Kilo-Calories" are synonymous. In fact, rarely is the formal form of that used over here.
I suspected as much. Still hate it.
Don't suppose we could get everyone to switch to using Watt-hours? We could start listing exercise intensity in watts and you could easily calculate how much calories are burned during exercise.
Or we just use joules like civilized folk
This thing exists but people were bitching at me for having one beer after i get off work yesterday....
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.
It's a quart
0.946 litres if anyone needs a translation.
I pray to the universe that that last scenario won't happen, but I'm totally doing it now if it does.
