Nutrition at Starbucks
This is a guest article with an interesting twist on what you might consider a ’sensible’ food choice…
Besides the brewed coffee, regular coffee and non-coffee blended beverages and the hot and cold espresso beverages; Starbucks also offers a variety of tea, bottled beverages, salads, sandwiches and baked pastries.
This is best for those on the move, whether office-goers or school children. They can grab a nice cup of hot coffee and a delicious muffin at any time of the day.
A few favorite food items at Starbucks and their calorie levels:
Starbucks reduced-fat blueberry coffeecake versus chocolate-filled croissant: Surprisingly, the croissant at 350 calories is a better choice than the 380-calorie coffeecake. In addition, the coffeecake has 500mg of sodium.
Starbucks white chocolate macadamia nut cookie versus raspberry and cream-filled croissant: The cookie, with 470 calories has almost twice as many calories as the croissant’s 260 calories.
It has been flaunted that Starbucks is the best thing that happened to coffee sales. On the business front, Starbucks has been performing very well for the last 10 years. It has undergone an extraordinary and profitable growth.
Besides, the management has taken care of not only the customers, but also their employees. The coffee cups are made out of recycled paper and the coffee beans are bought from the ‘free trade’ category.
