Buffy's Cool Cow Strawberry Milk!

My brothers go to Hartsfield Elementary. At the school they are served Buffy's Cool Cow Strawberry Milk for a snack and at lunch. They can have a many of these eight ounce milks for free.



 There is 22 g of sugar in one of these milk cartons. Sugar is the main cause for obesity and diabetes in America. High Fructose Corn Syrup is second on the ingredients list, which means it is the second most prevalent.
One 12 ounce coke has 39 grams of sugar in it. I did the math and there is 3.25 grams/ounce of sugar in a coke. There is 2.75 grams/ounce of sugar in a Buffy's Cool Cow strawberry milk.

My brothers claim that some people have up to 5 of these per day. Thats 110 grams of sugar. The daily recommendation for sugar intake is 24-36 grams. This company also sells fat free skim milk. It has 11 grams of sugar. If you have 2 of these your almost to your daily limit of sugar intake. They also sell chocolate milk. It has 22 grams of sugar in it as well.
