Why? "You walk in and pour as much yogurt as you want into a cup, before you pile on the toppings," says Dubost. "By the time you're at the register, you're up to the caloric value of a meal."
Here's the frozen yogurt nutrition breakdown: One Pinkberry medium-sized cup of the original tart flavor gives you 46 g of sugar -- 46! Throw on some yogurt chips and you're adding another 8 g of sugar. Assuming you opted for just the yogurt chips instead of the complimentary three toppings, you've just consumed 54 g of sugar -- or about three Twinkies worth of the sweet stuff.
Eat this instead: "Frankly, there are low-sugar and low-fat ice creams in the grocery store that have less calories and sugar than some of these frozen yogurts," says Dubost. Try Dreyer's Slow Churned No Sugar Added Ice Cream.

Wow. Some of this information was surprising. Some of these foods though I can't give up. Yogurt and Special K are delicious!

Good info, but people should just check the nutrition information and then this wouldn't be such a surprise:)

Sad about the spaghetti sauce, but that's not exactly a "snack" though.

I had no idea Jamba Juice had so much sugar! I mean, I knew it couldn't actually be good for me, but I thought it was at least a little good.
