A disgusting amount of junk food is being consumed as the US negotiates a nuclear deal with Iran

The US negotiating team hammering out the Iranian nuclear deal in Vienna, Austria, has reportedly eaten tens of pounds of junk food in the past five weeks.

Indeed, The Boston Globe reported Tuesday that the negotiating team has gone through:

• 10 pounds of Twizzlers (strawberry flavored)
• 20 pounds of string cheese
• 30 pounds of mixed nuts and dried fruit
• More than 200 Rice Krispies treats.
• Hundreds of espresso pods

The US and other world powers are attempting to finalize a deal with Iran where the country would give up some of its nuclear capabilities in exchange for a roll-back of economic sanctions. The deadline for the agreement, however, keeps getting pushed back. The new deadline is Friday.
