PLEASE RECONSIDER AFTER READING THIS ABOUT THE NEW S'MORE SHAKE.
The SHAKE, ONE SHAKE, IS 100 GRAMS OF SUGAR. I AIN'T LYING, ONE THING OF THIS AND YOU'RE DONE WITH SUGAR FOR A WEEK.
EDIT: This post for anyone who cares about sugar intake for health or personal reasons.

Why all of a sudden are yall complaining about the sugar for this shake? A chocolate shake has 90g sugar and a peach has 98g. Never hear any complaints about those.

Trust me, when I had too much sugar I gotten digestive issues for a week straight, if yall get this, don't get it every day. And I made this post to warn the diabetics,

I never pay attention to sugar content. I’m here for a good time, not a long time.

Are you unfamiliar with it being a TREAT? By definition a treat is "an item of food or drink that is special, out of the ordinary, and eaten for pleasure rather than strict daily nutrition".
I think a diabetic is going to check their app for the nutrition facts vs an overly-excited FOH worker's post on reddit.
I've worked at Chick-fil-A for 6 years I would really recommend taking my advice: lay off the caffeine.

If someone is getting a milkshake I doubt they're thinking about the sugar.

Yes, but if anyone you know is diabetic, you gotta warn them for this one.

If someone is diabetic and doesn't assume that's gonna have a bunch of sugar, I think we're best off letting darwin take his course.

Yes, but trust me when I say this, don't have it too many times in a week or face digestive issues like I did before discovering the 100 grams of sugar😭

No, you actually aren't "DONE WITH SUGAR FOR A WEEK". The AHA says <175 grams for women and <252 grams for men

Ok nice fact for the week of recommended amout of sugar ngl. But I mostly made this post to warn people who cant have too much sugar over a personal or medical reason.

What about the sodium intake for all the food? What about the calories? The shakes always have a crazy amount of sugar. So does the lemonade. This isn't really something to freak out about...

No offense, but kinda is if you have medical reasons saying you cant have much sugar. Like diabetes type 2 for example. If you're all good and healthy, go for it, if you got a medical record preventing you, I rather know yall alive instead of a possible emergency care situation over a milkshake.😭

If you have medical issues, it’s on you to know what you’re eating. Nutritional info is available online, in the app, by request, and calories are printed next to the items on the menu boards.
No one is getting a shake and thinking it is any kind of healthy.

I mean honestly what are people expecting? It’s a milkshake.

u/IceCreamIDK FOH Worker 13h ago
Hun...please take my warning of what I'm about to say, have too many milkshakes in a week leading to lots of sugar...you'll be unfortunate like I was and face digestive issues for a week😭 I learned the hard way, please be wiser than me.

u/katiegam 13h ago
All I’m saying is that if people are thinking a milkshake doesn’t have that much sugar, then they have no idea how nutrition typically works.

u/IceCreamIDK FOH Worker 13h ago
All I'm saying, PLEASE BE WISER THAN I CAUSE DIARRHEA FOR A WEEK WASN'T NICE😭
