Burger king Handspun Shakes

Are Burger King's handspun shakes SERIOUSLY only 190 calories? 
I know they're not the healthiest thing in the world, but I treat myself to them every once in a while. But I find the calorie content hard to believe, because they're a pretty decent size and taste just like any other fattening shake. What's so different about theirs that makes them only 190 calories? Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I must know.
I know their site claims the strawberry handspun shake to be 190, but I know there can be typos possibly?
anyone know anything about it, or how I could find out?

No. 22 on the men's health list of The 24 Best (and Worst) Desserts in America.22. Burger King Strawberry Hand Spun Shake
190 calories
4 g fat (2.5 g saturated)
31 g sugars
A shake ordered through most drive-through windows pushes close to 600 calories. That doesn’t make BK’s version necessarily healthy, but ordering the "Hand Spun" version cuts the caloric load by 70 percent.
the straight-up medium strawberry shake, though?Strawberry Shake (medium)
630 calories
15 g fat (11 g saturated)
102 g sugars

I had one recently, and when I checked the BK site, it shows the small strawberry hand spun shake coming in at 500 calories. Don't know where all that 190 calorie information came from, but I saw it on various diet-related sites. Too bad:drinker:0 -
Strawberry SUNDAE is 1900
