Why do they market that?

A McDonald's medium mocha frappe (16 ozs) is 540 calories, some 71 grams of sugar and 22 grams of fat.

Why would you even sell that?

Substitute Splenda for sugar and use low fat milk or creamer and you can get it down to 50 or so calories with almost no sugar.

Why the hell not?

The goddam thing will give you type 2 diabetes if you haven't already got it, if you consume one a day over a year or so.

Are they f-ing crazy?

Update, 9/10/16.

Used a Hershey's recipe found online to make the wife a 12 oz mocha frappe for about 50 calories from 4 packets of Splenda on top of the fat free half and half and cocoa powder.

I thought it was tasty.

More to the point, so did the wife.
