Nutrition labels on 'Dairy Queen' ice cream? You won't believe this
I recently made a rare trip to the DQ here in town. I love chocolate and decided to get their ultimate "whatever" since I don't often indulge. After finishing up my "Fudge Brownie Temptation Waffle Bowl Sundae" I started to think about it's fat and caloric detail as I entered some form of diabetic shock.
Upon finding the DQ website I was able to navigate to their nutritional information, but only after a bit of a hunt. The first screen was a disclosure regarding saturated fat percentage laws in certain states. That page is here. After this I was able to view the nutritional calculator, where you choose the ingredients piece-meal after which I was able to view the results found below.
998 calories, 50g fat with 50% of the calories coming from fat. Well, recently, I've been on a diet restricting my daily intake to 1500-2000 calories. The treat pretty much blew that away for the day.
But I'll tell you. It was A W E S O M E!! I wish I was as exited about broccoli.
Well let's get the story straight,Kayla and I wanted the waffle bowl sundae. Tim was gracious enough to get it for us. I shared it with her and Tim. Basically divide the calories by three. The DQ is a one to three time maximum trip in the Summer. A cooling, delicious, treat on a hot day. The calories are better left unknown. I will not be researching or caring about calories on my minimal visits to DQ. I do that every day. Life is to short not to include DQ! So Tim will you be also posting the Cluver's nutritional lists when they arrive in Northfield?:-) I wonder how many calories in a butter burger??
