A Starbucks Frappuccino has 150 mg caffeine and 60 g sugar. Almost the same as a full can of Monster.



Yes, kids should not be drinking Starbucks Frappuccinos.

Actually no one should.


If you are saying that they should also be banned, I completely agree. The qualifiers should be based on sugar and low quality vitamins but of course that gets into the rabbit hole of things like real bread vs. highly processed bread a.k.a. WWII rations a.k.a. American bread. Real bread only contains three to five ingredients. Real foods are getting harder to acquire due to fake foods having a much higher profit margin and longer shelf life.


Your point?
