* I do not have nutritional information for the vanilla syrup. It's probably a bunch of sugar and calories of course.

** From http://www.secondcup.com: "Although we do have some master franchises in the Middle East, namely in the U.A.E., Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Bahrain, Qatar, Oman, Jordan and Syria, we are not currently participating in any new international development at this time."

Well the McDonalds one has more fibre and vitamins so it *must* be better for you? ;-)

Lately we have been getting our shakes (well the 1 or 2 per summer) from a local burger/ice cream/shake joint near our place. Those shakes are amazing and they have 30 different flavours to choose from. Mmmmmmmmmm.
