Diet Coffee - Kent Ninomiya


Kent Ninomiya - Starbucks is finally jumping on the healthy bandwagon. They plan to introduce a line of lighter products this year. The first will be skinny lattes and mochas. They are just 90 calories for a tall compared to 190 for a regular latte and 270 in a regular mocha. The shocker here isn't that Starbucks is introducing diet coffee. It's that many of us have been guzzling this stuff for years without realizing how fattening it was. Oh... the new drinks have no fat compared to 5 grams for a regular tall vanilla latte and 12 grams of fat for a tall caffe mocha. Feeling coffee remorse? You would have been better off with the doughnuts! Kent Ninomiya
