If I was the owner and someone called me with that story, I would turn them in to Child Protective Services.

At home he gets 100% juices... but the "fruit punch" at fast food places has more sugar than sweet tea.
Yes he had fries, no that's not what's in the tea because at the time he was drinking the tea he was not eating fries. Besides, these are large chunks, some too large to have been "backwashed" in to the straw.
If I didn't feel a little ill this morning and had he not puked spectacularly last night the entire contents of his stomach, I wouldn't have been as concerned. He seems to be fine now and after he puked last night he was fine as well.
As for the "sugar overload" theory, sweet tea is one of his favorite drinks and I've let him drink it on multiple occasions with no adverse side effects.

My husband has seen the kitchen area up close and has made sure everyone he knows understands to never ever ever eat there
But...but...I :heart: Checkers.

Whatever. You just think you are better than her because her husband works at Checkers.No. I was just wondering if he was a heath inspector.

Is milk not an option for your child?
Fast Food restaurant drinks have about a 2000% profit margin
When I eat there, I'll use a coupon to grab a couple of the burgers and then take them home to eat them with a glass of milk.
well, not actually a "glass" of milk.
Since I'm single, I can just drink out of the bottle

Tea has more caffeine than coffee.
A 2 yr. old does not need caffeine in their little body.Ask the Dr. or Dentist if this is good and see what they say about the sugar laying in the childs mouth while sleeping and the damage it can do to the teeth as well as to the teeth under the gums. Turns them black and they rot and child will have to have them pulled to keep from ruining his primary teeth that haven't come in yet. JMO

Caffeine inhibits the body's ability to use calcium. A growing child should not drink anything that contains caffeine.

No matter what you spout, it is not good to give a child caffeine or too much sugar.
http://www.healthychild.net/articles/na17caffeine.html
Is it healthy for children to consume caffeine? Many health care providers, especially pediatricians, recommend that children avoid or limit caffeine use. Caffeine is absorbed very quickly in the body and then passes into the central nervous system. Caffeine in low doses can affect the body, such as decreased appetite, increased urination, and insomnia (difficulty sleeping). Toxic effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, cramps, muscle twitching, and agitation can begin with consumption of as little as 4.5 mg of caffeine per pound of body weight (114 mg in a 25 lb. child). Severe caffeine toxicity can lead to seizures, an increased heart rate and an irregular heart beat. "Caffeine sensitivity" refers to the amount of caffeine that will produce negative side effects and this amount varies from person to person. Caffeine does not accumulate in the bloodstream and is excreted in the urine within hours of being consumed.
