The 20 Most Sugar-Packed Foods in America Avoid America's Most Insulin-Spiking Foods To Satisfy Your Cravings Without Guilt Think your sweet-tooth is harmless? Well, it just might bite you back. The average American is wolfing down 460 calories from added sugars every day. That's more than 100 pounds of raw sugar per person per year (enough to make 3,628 Reese's Peanut Butter Cups!). What's at risk with all this sugar intake isn't just another cavity; refined carbohydrates cause spikes in your blood sugar levels, tell your body to store fat, and put people at increased risk for diabetes. That's another way of saying that it puts people at increased risk of blindness, sexual malfunction, heart attack, and premature death. All that from a simple candy bar or soda? Consider this: A dollar will buy you about 75 calories' worth of fresh broccoli, but food manufacturers can use that same dollar to purchase 1,815 calories of sugar. And thanks to government subsidies, high fructose corn syrup, the synthetic sweetener found in so many of the foods in our grocery stores, is even cheaper. It should come as no surprise, then, that added sugars are sabotaging nearly every packaged and prepared food we put in our bodiesâpasta sauces, smoothies, even whole grain breads. Restock your kitchen with foods that taste as good as they are good for you from the list of the 125 Best Supermarket Foods. The Most Sugar-Packed Food in America Baskin Robbins Large YorkÂ® Peppermint Pattie Shake 281 g sugars 2,210 calories Baskin Robbins' line of candy-based beverages are horrendous on so many accounts: Each large shake has a day's worth of calories, up to three days of saturated fat, and an ingredient list so long -- some more than seven inches -- it requires an advanced degree in chemistry to decipher. This particular caloric catastrophe has more sugar than 11 Peppermint Patties. Most Sugar-Packed Sundae Uno Chicago Grill's Mega-Sized Deep Dish Sundae (servings listed as four) 272 g sugars 2,800 calories If you plan on eating this thing alone, you better have your doctor on speed dial. The 1.7-pound ice-cream sundae has more than a day's worth of calories. Even split four ways it amounts to 700 calories and 68 grams of sugar. Ick. Most Sugar-Packed Chunky Ice Cream Baskin Robbins Large Fudge Brownie 31 Below (24 oz) 233 g sugars 1,900 calories Baskins' Law: The chunkier the ice cream, the more havoc it will wreak on one's waistline. As a rule of thumb, avoid all specialty concoctions, sundaes, and shakes at Baskins; if you must splurge, stick to a single scoop in a cup. Better yet, take advantage of their impressive array of sorbets, sherbets, and no-sugar-added ice creams. Want to hear more? Avoid these 10 Worst Ice Cream Treats in America. Most Sugar-Packed Fruit Drink Sonic's Route 44 Cherry Slush 170 g sugars 640 calories There are just two parts to the cherry slush: ice and sugar. That leaves no room for real cherry in the slush, just as there ought to be no room in your diet for 44 ounces of frozen sugar. Most Sugar-Packed Coffee Drink Starbuck's Venti Strawberries & CrÃ¨me FrappuccinoÂ® with whipped CrÃ¨me (24 oz) 120 g sugars 750 calories This afternoon pick-me-up is a clandestine delivery system for 30 teaspoons of sugar. To top this sugar load, you would have to munch through three sticky orders of cotton candy. Most Sugar-Packed Breakfast Bob Evans' Stacked & Stuffed Strawberry Banana Cream Hotcakes 102 g sugars 1,200 calories Despite the fruity name, this is truly one of the worst breakfast entrÃ©es in America. Each stack has 25.5 teaspoons of sugar -- that's more sugar than six funnel cakes. This is their diabetic special -- one that contributes to the disease, instead of curing it. Most Sugar-Packed Yogurt Au Bon Pain's Large Low-Fat Blueberry Yogurt with Fruit (15 oz.) 75 g sugars 440 calories Don't let Au Bon Pain trick you into thinking that this is one of its healthier options -- it has nearly four times more sugar than the Apple Strudel. In fact, most fruit-flavored yogurts should be avoided, since the "fruit" usually comes in the form of a puddle of high fructose corn syrup waiting at the bottom of the cup. Most Sugar-Packed Asian Dish Pei Wei Asian Diner's Orange Peel Beef 66 g sugars 1,320 calories Unlike Pei Wei's parent company, P.F. Chang's, this Asian restaurant actually discloses its sugar content. Unfortunately, the numbers they provide leave little hope for Chinese-food lovers, considering such a large portion of their popular dishes are obscured by a cloak of molten sugar. Makes you wonder what's hiding in P.F. Chang's menu. Most Sugar-Packed Dinner EntrÃ©e Uno Chicago Grill's Baby Back Ribs 62 g sugars 860 calories Uno Chicago Grill likes to boast about the signature citrus barbecue sauce that covers these ribs. We bet we can guess the secret ingredient (hint: it's not citrus). Most Sugar-Packed Kids' Meal Oscar Mayer Maxed Out Turkey & Cheddar Cracker Combo Lunchables 61 g sugars 680 calories Kids love Lunchables, and for the usual reason: It's a candy box. Too bad so many busy parents use them to fill empty lunchboxes. But this kids' meal has more calories than a Whopper and more sugar than two Snickers bars; suddenly, packing their own lunches becomes more of a priority. Anything to avoid that prepackaged candy and sugary drink. Most Sugar-Packed Breakfast Pastry Panera's Cobblestone Sweet Rolls 61 g sugars 590 calories Make this streusel-and-icing topped roll your breakfast staple and you'll add 7,564 calories of pure sugar to your monthly intake. That's more than 25 extra pounds of sugar-induced body fat you'll be forced to deal with. You better hope the sugar buzz keeps you active.

Most Sugar-Packed Soft Drink Sunkist Orange 190 calories 52 g sugars Soft drinks are the No. 1 source of added sugar in the American diet, and this perennial favorite is the worst offender of all. Drink just one of these a day and you're looking at adding nearly 42 pounds of sugar to your diet this year alone. Most Sugar-Packed Cookie Dunkin' Donut's Oatmeal Raisin Cookie 51 g sugars 480 calories Oatmeal and raisins on their own are good eats, but combined in this massive cookie they contribute to a full meal's worth of calories. You're better off eating two glazed donuts than sinking your teeth into this disaster. Most Sugar-Packed "Healthy" Food Panera's Pumpkin Muffin 47 g sugars 530 calories Stop thinking of muffins as health food and start thinking of them as cake. They're made from refined flour, contain only trace amounts of fiber, and can pack more sugar than two ice cream bars. Have one of these for breakfast, and you've sabotaged your diet for the whole day.

Most Sugar-Packed Side Dish Boston Market's Cinnamon Apples 42 g sugars 210 calories This apple dish is right up there with the one Eve served to Adam, and you know how that worked out. Boston Market's sickly sweet side consists of apples overwhelmed with sugar, brown sugar, soybean oil, and cornstarch. Oh yeah, and a pinch of cinnamon -- which is about the only healthy thing in it. If you want this dish done right, make it at home. 16, Most Sugar-Packed Sandwich Subway's Foot-Long Sweet Onion Chicken Teriyaki 38 g sugars 740 calories The most distressing part: this sandwich finds its way onto Subway's "healthy" menu. Ignore the claims of 'low fat' that adorn the menu board; the teriyaki sauce contributes nearly 10 teaspoons of sugar to the sandwich, which will soon find their way to your waistline. Most Sugar-Packed Salad Uno Chicago Grill's Spinach, Chicken and Gorgonzola Salad 38 g sugars 720 calories The candied walnuts on this salad help to make it sweeter than a double-scoop cone of Ben & Jerry's Butter Pecan ice cream. Choose a more sensible meal and save the sugar calories for dessert. Which you'll share, right? Most Sugar-Packed Vegetarian Dish Bob Evans' Vegetable Stir-Fry 31 g sugars 505 calories No, not even stir-fry is safe in the hands of a corporate cook. This one is sautÃ©ed in a thick, sugary slurry and then seasoned with more than 2,000 mg of sodium. Most Sugar-Packed Chicken Dish KFC's Five Teriyaki Wings 30 g sugars 480 calories Teriyaki sauce is infamous for being packed with sugar, but with these wings, KFC reaches new levels of adulterated meat. Each wing has five grams of fat and six grams of sugar. Go with hot wings instead; they have no sugar and 130 fewer calories. Chicken is a lean, fat-fighting protein. But it's also the most abused food in American restaurants. Here's the evidence: The Worst Chicken Dishes in America.
