Dear MEL Topic Readers,
'Shocking' sugar levels in High Street hot drinks, warns charity
Do you drink coke or soda? You probably know that they contain very
high amount of sugar. But there are other harmful, yet comforting drinks out
there waiting for your sip.
If you regularly enjoy sweet and creamy hot drinks in cafes such as cafe-latte
or hot chocolate, you better look at this list. As much as 20 or more spoonfuls
of sugar is dissolved in a large cup of such luxurious drinks, according to a
survey conducted in England. That amounts 80 to 100 grams of sugar, or nearly
10 cups of coffee or tea with two spoonfuls of sugar in each cup. You probably
wouldn’t take that much sugar unless it’s already contained in a very sneaky
and subtle way.
What would be your next choice of drink in a café? Are cold drinks less
sugary? You may want to check the websites of coffee shops.
Enjoy reading and thinking if you’ll still have someone put sugar in
your drinks from now on.
