I had the oatmeal yesterday, it was good. It comes with sides of dried fruit, nuts, and brown sugar, and each side has a calorie count on the package. Brilliant! Warning though, if you add all three it's something like 400 calories total. Still not terrible considering how filling it is, but too many calories for breakfast for me. I added the nuts and some of the sugar and took the fruit home for a 100 calorie snack later.
Everything they've added is health conscious and they have a nutritional leaflet that explains everything at the counter.
Kudos to Starbucks for giving health conscious eaters several breakfast and lunch options. 2 Thumbs up!
Actually the packet says it is 140 calories plain. That's still not bad though. :) I added some cinnamon, nutmeg and a splenda to mine today. It was yummy!
I had one of the Chewy Fruit and Nut bars today...and I liked it. 65grams, 250 calories, 10 grams fat (2 sat) 4g fiber, 5g protein, 38 carbs, 20g sugar. I need more good fats in my diet (these have Omega 3 I believe), so I was pretty stoked to see that fat. However, I wasn't too happy about the 20g of sugar.
I've also had the banana chocolate protein shake. It was also pretty good.
The chewy bar I had was $1.75. Starbucks execs are genius. This new display is probably going to take off like crazy.
I am so excited to try this new stuff. I love Starbucks.
