  • The Unhealthiest Desserts Ever!

    The Unhealthiest Desserts Ever!
     

    I am LOVING Men's Health right now for compiling a list of the top 15 unhealthiest desserts ever.

    Here are the worst in the top ten line-up!

    10. The worst hot chocolate treat would have to go to Starbucks' Venti 2% Salted Caramel Signature Hot Chocolate. Coming in at 760 calories and 37 grams of fat, this tasty hot chocolate drink may taste good while you're drinking it, but the extra mile you'll have to run on the treadmill later will make you think twice about having another one.

    9. Uno Chicago Grill's Kid Sundae is ranked as the worst dessert for children. The cherry on top does not cancel out the 860 calories and 94 grams of sugar that you're kid will be consuming in this "bowl" of ice cream.

    8. Unfortunately for all you Cinnabon lovers out there, the Caramel Pecanbun is considered the worst "mall treat" you can eat while you shop. Containing a dangeous 1,110 calories and 141 grams of carbohydrates, this "snack" will cost you almost half of the suggested daily intake of calories.

    7. Dairy Queen's Raspberry Truffle Blizzard, if bought as a large, will be worst for you than any other ice creamy treat on their menu. The Blizzard has 1,140 calories and 141 grams of sugar! Just because it has raspberries in it doesn't mean it's healthy, folks!

    6. Think Jamba Juice is off the hook? Think again. Jamba Juice's Peanut Butter Moo'd shake has 1,170 calories! Unless you plan on drinking this shake split into two meals, we suggest you steer clear of this - the worst shake!

    5. Red Robin's Mountain High Mudd Pie may have a cute rhyming name, but there's nothing cute about the nutritional facts. This slice of pie has over 1,350 calories and more than 200 grams of carbohydrates! Considering you're probably grabbing a burger before this pie, this slice is best to be split between your entire party.

    4. Men's Health ranked Red Lobster's Chocolate Wave as the worst cake possible. With 81 grams of fat and 172 grams of carbohydrates, this ice-cream-cake-combo dessert can definitely play a role in weight gain.

    3. The worst chocolate dessert award was given to Chili's Chocolate Chip Paradise Pie. With 1,590 calories and 220 grams of carbs, this dessert was previously listed as the worst dessert in America by Men's Health. And to put it in perspective- this dessert has the same calorie count as THREE BIG MACS from McDonalds. Yikes!

    2. What contains 1,610 calorie, 80 grams of fat, 183 grams of sugar and 222 grams of carbs? The worst sundae- Baskin Robbins York Peppermint Pattie Brownie Sundae! Not only does it have 80 grams of fat, but it also contains TRANS fat! Who knew it was possible for ice cream to be so bad?!

    And the award for the Worst Dessert in America goes to...

    Romano Macaroni Grill's New York Cheesecake with Caramel Fudge Sauce! This slice of cake has 1,660 calories, 97 grams of fat, 950 milligrams of sodium and 165 grams of carbs! While many people pass off cheesecake as a "healthy alternative," this cheesecake proves to be the opposite!

    Have you ever tried any of these desserts? What are other desserts that are not on this list that are bad for you?
