Sugar vs. Sugar (Ice Tea vs. Coke)

What do you guys think about this? I went to Starbucks the other week because it was hot and I had no ice, or tea. Fail. I attempted to order my usual, “Venti Passion iced tea, unsweetened, ez ice”.

Calories + Portion Control

Someone recently commented, “Calories don’t count if you eat whole foods. You can eat as much as you want.” Um… I respectfully disagree.
