Dunkin' Donuts Iced Vanilla Coffee

Per 12 oz. serving: 60 calories, 0 g fat (0g saturated fat), 25 mg sodium, 11 g carbs (0 g fiber, 11 g sugar), 1 g protein

When a major company has to move coffee across the nation, they probably pack their products with extra sugar to make the drink sell better. Dunkin' Donuts Iced Vanilla Coffee has become a store staple for this very reason—its eleven grams of sugar makes it appeal to even those who can't normally stomach coffee. The American Heart Association recommends that a person should not consume more than 36 grams of sugar a day, and even downing one of these drinks puts you dangerously close to your daily limit.
