I've cut down on my sugar intake. I pretty much only drink water (okay, I drink coffee) with every meal now. This article lists some of the most sugary foods. Baskin Robbins Large York Peppermint Pattie Shake is insane.

This particular caloric catastrophe has more sugar than 11 Peppermint Patties!
