A New Level of Consumption

The other day I walked into a Terrible's convenience store to pick up a soft drink. I happened to notice a new little section of those "insulated" cups you can buy.  I saw one, and I thought, "That is GIGANTIC."  I looked at the bottom to see how many ounces of liquid this massive "cup" held. I was astonished: 100 ounces.

100 OUNCES! Previously, the largest drink I had ever seen was the infamous "Double Gulp", 7-11's 1.9 liter mega-greedy-man's tumbler. But this? This is just.... beyond.

100 ounces = 2.9+ liters. If someone were to fill that sucker up with, say, Coca-Cola, they would be consuming an astonishing 1,250 calories. I need to get a picture of this icon of gluttony.
