McDonald's Iced Coffee Revealed!

So, I went into Mickey D's to get myself my favorite new drink: the large sugar-free vanilla coffee.

I always thought it was too good to be true. Full of vanilla and coffee and cream....so instead of going to the drive-thru I went into the store. They have a pump with the syrup in it. I counted 7 pumps into my coffee. By the time they brought the coffee to me, it was a third full of this syrup.

Anyway, here are the official numbers, but I'd bet they're double.
Nutrition Facts

And frankly, that's probably a lie. That's probably like - 2 pumps
and not the actual 7 they give it.

This thing is almost ALL FAT.
And by God, it is the best coffee drink
I've ever had.

But no more.

I wish I didn't know.

Yesterday I was happy.

    Yes, yes, this is why I don't look into the apparatus, Digital Couch! Better *NOT* to know, ya know? Now you'll never be able to thoroughly enjoy that drink again :(

  3. I know. I was better off not knowing. I swear, this was like - a clear thick liquid that was half full in the cup before they even put milk in. Yikes.
