More smoothies cutting the calories

Not really. But this post is for another reason.

Maybe it helps answer the question, "Why are kids fat?"
"Take The Blender, a 1,270-calorie whopper made with chocolate or vanilla protein, peanut butter, banana, milk and ice cream, made by Emerald City. And there's Anne Kessler's favorite, the Mocha Bliss, another of the chain's more indulgent offerings.
