EVOS Milkshake - Low Cal, High Sugar?

Quote  |  Reply
Hi, everyone! 

(FYI)  EVOS is a "healthy" fast food chain that's recently opened up near my office. 

Today, foregoing the milkshake at our favorite burger joint (I always forego the milkshake, fries, and burgers and head for a fish wrap, no sauce, and fruit cup!!) we headed over to EVOS.  Their milkshakes are "organic" (no chemicals, no splenda!  uh oh!)

After reading the nutritionals (posted, free for all!  hurray!)  I decided on a Large Cappuccino.  It's 20 oz, 3 grams of fat, 190 calories...that all sounds good, but...

it's got 36 grams of sugar and 37 carbs!  :: heart attack ::.  I know by no means is this milkshake "healthy" - but is 36 grams of sugar too detrimental to risk?  I'm a pro calorie counter but I'm still slow on carbs, glycemic index, how sugar breaks down, etc.

I still haven't finished the milkshake for fear that this is just an unacceptable amount of sugar.

Frrrrozen by Fear,

Sam
