SO......each bottle you slurp down in 10 minutes is 200 calories and 48 grams of sugar!!!! Notice there are 2 servings in each bottle. If you quit your peach snapple sugar fix and switched to maybe a home brewed peach tea with stevia (a natural sweetner you can find in the health food store) you would then be drinking ) calories and 0 sugar.......make it a green tea blend and you'll be adding a plethora of antioxidants to your diet too :)) And I have an idea..........WHAT IF........you recycled all those Snapple glass bottles and refilled them with your home brew! Yay! :))

**Incidentally, I found this little snippet for you to read :

According to the World Health Organization, no more than 10 percent of calories should come from added sweeteners. This advice is in line with the long-standing recommendations of the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) food pyramid, which called for a maximum of 12 teaspoons of sugar (48 grams) in a 2,200-calorie diet -- or roughly 9 percent of daily calories. Current USDA guidelines, revised in 2005, simply say to limit these calories.

.......alarming isnt it!

Answer 3

i vote bad

Answer 4

Read the label.  If it is full of sugar, it is as bad for you as soda.  Switch to Diet Snapple.
