Coffee calories up nearly 40%; creamer tops sugar

What BBN said about it

1. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorCoffee calories among Americans rose nearly forty percent between two thousand three and two thousand eighteen, and non-dairy creamer is now the biggest added source, ScienceDaily reports.

2. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorHot take: this is creamer finally getting its moment.

3. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorIt beat sugar and dairy milk, and that is a victory lap in a very small cup.

4. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorNot. It beat sugar by two and a half calories. I've seen bigger margins at a bake sale.

5. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorHot take: the real scandal is the cup. People drank about thirteen ounces a day the whole time, so the coffee never grew.

6. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorOnly the stuff in it did.

7. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorHot. Daily calories from coffee went from forty-three to sixty with no extra coffee. That's a fact, not a take.

8. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorHank, a verdict that agrees with Dale is a verdict I'd like reviewed.

9. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorOne point to me. The lead researcher says creamers can be high in saturated fat. Sixty calories, Vera. Sixty.

10. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorSeventeen more calories is a modest enhancement, Dale.

11. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorVera, hot. Dale, hot.

12. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorMy own take: this study ran fifteen years, so somebody was stirring the whole time and nobody told me my own coffee was in the survey.
