6 Terrifying Theme Park Foods

You visit the amusement park to have a good time, but the foods they offer are no fun for your waistline

Worst Frozen Treat

Snow Cone (3 oz. syrup)

68 g sugar

You know what's ever-so-slightly worse than consuming liquid sugar in strand form? Consuming liquid sugar in liquid form, which is precisely what you do when you eat a snow cone. The ice is completely benign, but the syrup it's drenched in is anything but—it harbors more than five tablespoons of pure sugar! Go with a scoop of ice cream instead; you could eat three and a half scoops before matching the sugar in one snow cone, and the cream's protein and fat will help temper the rush of glucose that hits your blood.
