What Is In Wawa’s Smoothies?

Wawa sells a wide variety of food, and if you live on the east coast you are likely addicted. Wawa is open 24 hours a day, every day. As we are sure you’ve all heard how Wawa stayed open during covid and has even stayed open and helped people in storms, hurricanes, and more. 

They are legends, but are their smoothies?

Some of their smoothies are kind of healthy, but others really are not. Their fruit smoothies are made from real fruit and some have no cholesterol or fat, however, some cream-based smoothies of theirs are packed with sugar, fat, and cholesterol. 

The most awesome thing about Wawa’s smoothies is that there are so many options! You can even add whipped cream if you fancy a sugar kick!

Now, this is important. Added sugars are an unhealthy tradition of modern diets. Wawa smoothies are tasty and sweet, and sadly, all contain added sugars. Yet, that being said, some contain a great deal more added sugars than others. The Lemon Freeze has 85 g of sugar, but the Chocolate Cheesecake Cookie Cream has 121 g of sugar! 

If you want to limit how much sugar you’re consuming, you should check the nutritional information on the smoothie before you order. This way, you can make sure that you are not consuming more sugar than you want. 

Do Wawa Smoothies Have Real Fruit?

You might not expect Wawa to make their smoothies with real fruit, as most smoothies do not unless made at a specific smoothie joint or at home. 

However, fruit-based smoothies from Wawa do contain real fruit, usually blended into a puree. Some of these include: 

  • Mango Banana smoothie. 
  • Strawberry Banana smoothies.
  • Blueberry Pomegranate Smoothie.
