Now you can snack at your local Starbucks with a little less guilt. The coffee company has just launched a number of low-calorie snack options, and has simplified its menus to include whole grains, Oregon blueberries and Michigan cherries. Here's a sampling of the new snacks:
- Marshmallow Dream Bar - A light, sweet snack for people watching their weight. It has 210 calories, and has been getting mixed reviews from bloggers. Some non-weightwatchers are outraged that it replaced the old rice crispie square, which was more than 400 calories.
- Dark Cherry Yogurt Parfait - With real cherries, vanilla granola, and fat-free cherry yogurt, this has 320 calories.
- Strawberry Banana Vivanno™ Smoothie - Made from simple ingredients – pure strawberry puree, a whole banana, whey protein powder, 2% milk and ice - and under 300 calories.
- Farmer’s Market Salad – A blend of blue cheese, almonds, dried cranberries and apples piled on a bed of romaine lettuce with all-natural balsamic vinaigrette for 220 calories.
