Someone sent this to me in an email the other day, and I couldn’t resist posting it. We know the facts about junk food, but I think this brings some perspective pretty quickly. Each cube represents a teaspoonful…

Let’s take a look at some drinks!

Dessert, anyone?

OR, you could eat these yummy things instead…

And how about these condiments?

And finally, what are you eating for breakfast?

Kind of makes you wonder about the different “grades of fuel” you’re putting into your body, doesn’t it?!

Awesome post, I really like seeing pictures like that to show how much sugar you are ingesting.

Internet Explorer? Never heard of it 🙂

Chris,
Yes the pictures really hit home. Can you imagine sitting there and spooning 10 tsp of sugar into your coffee? YUCK! Well, that’s what’s in a can of Coke!
