How much fat in a Dunkin Donuts French vanilla Coffee/Hazlenut Coffee?

It should be listed on the dunkin donuts website, or ask a local DD by your house, they should have a booklet on the nutritional content of their products, most fast food type places have them, I got one at Taco Bell.
 
Popular Summer Drinks Called Desserts in Disguise

Aug. 9

— NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Cooling off with the frothy, sweet beverages sold at so many coffee and juice bars could undermine a person's summer diet, according to nutrition experts.

Nutritionists at Tufts University in Boston, Massachusetts, say summer thirst quenchers like the Coffee Coolatta sold at Dunkin' Donuts and the Starbucks standby Tazoberry and Cream can supply a meal's worth of calories and more than a day's worth of saturated fat if consumers aren't careful.

According to the editors of Tufts' Health & Nutrition Letter, plain old iced coffee poses no threat to the waistline. But when large doses of sugar, whole milk and cream enter the picture, these drinks should be considered desserts rather than beverages.

Among the potential diet busters according to the August issue of the newsletter are: Dunkin' Donuts' Vanilla Bean Coolatta, which in a large-sized cup boasts about 880 calories and 30 grams of saturated fat--the artery-clogging kind; Starbucks' large Tazoberry and Cream, which weighs in at 750 calories and 22.5 grams of saturated fat; and Au Bon Pain's large-sized Frozen Mocha-Blast, which supplies 480 calories and 3 grams of saturated fat.

Juices can also pack a big calorie punch, albeit a fat-free one, the editors note. As some examples, they point to Fresh Samantha's 15.2-ounce Mango Mama, which contains 260 calories, and Nantucket Nectars' 16-ounce Strawberry Orange Banana juice, a 310-calorie treat.

But weight-conscious Americans need not choose between these summer thirst quenchers and their bikinis, according to the Tufts nutrition experts. They point out that asking for skim or low-fat milk can slash calories and fat from those frosty coffee drinks. And with any high-calorie beverage, drinking only a portion of the typically oversized servings is the way to go.

The recommended serving size for juice is just 6 ounces, the experts note.
