Call for UK ban on 'grotesquely sugary' freakshakes
"The campaign group Action on Sugar is demanding a ban on freakshakes and all milkshakes with more than 300 calories.
It surveyed milkshakes sold in restaurants and fast food shops in the UK and found they
contained "grotesque levels of sugar and calories".
Freakshakes are milkshakes that also contain chocolates, sweets, cake, cream and sauce.
The Toby Carvery Unicorn Freakshake came top of the survey with 39 teaspoons of sugar or 1,280 calories."
That works out as nearly the equivalent of the entire day's calorie requirement for many adults.
