I said GOD DAMN!!!

Who the hell eats 42.5 teaspoons of sugar a day?

let me restate that.. what kind of person would eat that much sugar a
day... I have 2-4 with my coffee, if I eat pancakes maybe 2 more if I
have a salad with the dressing that I make maybe 1/4 more
if I have a drink at night maybe 1 more
with dinner maybe 2-3 more....
lets say an extra for errors and that is less than 11 max

42.5 freakin teaspoons of sugar.....
I say GOD DAMN!!
