I get DD iced coffee, and I get a medium FV iced coffee with 7 creams and 7 sugars. (I know, crazy). I KNOW it's going to be like a million calories, but I didn't care today, I needed one after the morning I had (someone stole all of my jeans at the laundry mat) :noway:

So yeah, I want to enter it in right, so far I put in a M coffee with cream and sugar and it gives me 120 calories, but I know with 7&7 it's got to be way more than that.

My sister worked there and said that there is only like an inch of coffee in it when you order that, the rest is cream & sugar.

    Search for cream and add extra as well as the sugar. Is that 7 teaspoons of cream and 7 teaspoons of sugar?
  • Next time just go to mcdonalds and get a sugar free vanilla iced coffee. It's 120 calories for the large. I just add a bunch of splenda to sweeten it up.

    I know huh? Seriously, who steals people's wet jeans! They took all my clothes out of the washing machine and went through them I guess. I can't sit there for 45 minutes with a 3 year old and a 9 month old, so I run my errands while they wash and then go back. When I got back they were gone.

    I've tried other brands of coffee, but the thing is I don't like *coffee*. lol. I only like DD brand with 7 and 7, and yes, that's 7 creams and 7 sugars. I tried getting it with skim milk and splenda, it was gross. And I get my sugar not melted because I like to crunch it. Splenda just doesn't do that for me.

    I say just add everything separately. Coffee is really low in calories, my two cups each morning is 5. Search for cream and add 7 tbsp (most restaurants use 18%) and then 7 tbsp sugar. I know that my double double (two cream, two sugar) from tim hortons is 230 calories for a L :ohwell:

    Ok, so I added 2 oz of FV coffe black. Then 7 tablespoons of 18% cream and 7 teaspoons of sugar.

    Total, 319 calories. eep!

    Have you checked to see if they have a website that might post info?

    I looked, they have combos of coffee, they don't list the calories for a single cream or whatnot. And they don't have 7&7 on there, hmmmm, wonder why! lol! :bigsmile:
  • LOL @ the DD 7 & 7. I'm so sorry that happened to you. What a drag. I'd have wanted a real 7 & 7. Ha!!
  • I don't know what "DD" is, but most places aren't using tbsp when they pour those portions. I know Tim Hortons uses a machine that dispenses even portions. You could try checking their website, they have an amazing 'nutritional calculator' that lets you pick your beverage and select how many extras you add (cream, milk, sugar, etc.). When I checked a medium coffee with 7 cream and 7 sugar, it gave me 525 calories. :S

    Wow, crunchy coffee! :laugh: That must be really good. When I was little my grandpa would make me a tiny cup of coffee in my own gold mug. He'd do just a little coffee, and then a lot of milk and a LOT of sugar. It would all settle at the bottom of the mug so the last sip was always the best. :smooched:

    I'm sorry about your jeans! :frown: I do my laundry at a laundromat, but luckily it contains a lot of my bf's holey boxers and my ripped up jeans so I don't think anyone would even want to touch our laundry. :huh:
