Wow it is astonishing the amount of sugar in each of those cups. The 210g of sugar in the 64 oz cup when converted to oz it = 7.4075oz that is nearly more than half of a 12 oz cup worth of sugar just imagine trying to drink 7.4075oz of sugar i guess if people knew more about this they'd stop ordering soda and drink water.
