Duncan Donut serves coffee and iced coffee in a large that's 32 fluid ounces. Isn't that getting to be a little bit too much? Even the Starbucks Venti size is only 20 ounces. Does anyone really need a coffee pot in their hand? No wonder people have a hard time keeping weight off when the serving sizes are so big.

    No, OP. I can tell you from personal experience, they are just right.

    Personally that much coffee would probably have my family killing me for bouncing around the house all day but it'd be good for long trips.

    First of all, I'm pretty sure a lot of guys are clicking on this post then leaving very disappointed.
    I'm in Canada and Tim Horton's is our Dunkin Donuts. Their extra large is now 24oz and the large, which used to be their xl is 20oz. I can barely make it through the 24oz and stick with the 20oz, a 32oz would be out of my league.

    Well, an iced coffee with calorie-free sweetener (or none, I guess) and only a little milk, especially if it's skim, won't set you back that many calories. I can't figure out how you'd manage to drink the thing before the ice melted so much that it was watery and nasty, but I guess some people can? (I don't know, I don't like coffee as it is.)

    Also, DDs can make shopping a little difficult sometimes, but they're certainly manageable.

    I always heard that more than a mouthful was unnecessary but I don't think that much coffee would be enough to satisfy.

    I don't think 32 ounces of coffee daily will put weight on. I think it would act as a diuretic actually in that volume for me.
