Just the Fats, Ma'am!
Starbucks has added some reduced fat options to their menu. But don't fool yourself into thinking they're necessarily low in calories, or even fat. If you're going to partake, know what you're getting into.
HG has the scoop...
Reduced Fat Cinnamon Swirl Coffee Cake - 290 cal, 4g fat
Reduced Fat Banana Chocolate Chip Coffee Cake - 390 cal, 8g fat
Reduced Fat Blueberry Coffee Cake - 320 cal, 6g fat
Reduced Fat Chocolate Muffin - 290 cal, 5g fat
Low Fat Apricot Blueberry Muffin - 380 cal, 5g fat |

Extra, Extra!
You'd be surprised just how much damage a little whipped cream or a couple of pumps of syrup can do. Skip these little extras to keep your drink from turning into a liquid fright-fest:
Whipped Cream - That big, scary squirt of whipped cream can add up to 130 calories & 12 grams of fat to your drink. What a silly idea that is!
Syrup Swap - The Bucks' regular flavored syrups add about 20-25 calories a pump to your beverage. Their SF syrup is calorie-free. Weeeee! |

Don't Go Bananas
Don't think just because a Starbucks Frappuccino is labeled as 'Light' it's low cal. Unfortunately, such is the case with Starbucks' new summer time blended banana beverages. Yes, the light version of this frothy concotion is lower in calories than the regular one, but it's still quite high for a beverage. Take a look for yourself...
Bananas & Creme Frappuccino Blended Creme, w/ whip (Grande) - 550 calories, 15g fat
Banana Caramel Frappuccino Light Blended Coffee, no whip (Grande) - 310 calories, 1g fat |

Tea Careful...
It's easy to automatically think that anything with '"tea" in its name would be diet-friendly, but you'd be very, very wrong. Just look...
Tazo Green Tea Frappuccino Blended Creme, w/ whip (Grande) - 490 calories, 14g fat
Iced Tazo Red Tea Latte, w/ whip and whole milk (Grande) - 230 calories, 8g fat
Tazo Chai Tea Frappuccino Blended Creme, w/ whip (Grande) - 440 calories, 13g fat |
