Starbucks Adds Healthier Items

Friday July 3, 2009
I travel a lot so that means I spend a fair amount of time in coffee shops (love wireless internet access). While it's fun to try out different local coffee shops, sometimes its just easier to stop at a Starbucks because I know what to expect.

StarbucksSo I'm pleased to see Starbucks add healthier items to their menu (I especially like the Farmer's Market Salad). Hopefully, it's part of a trend where restaurants rein in the gigantic portions of unhealthy foods and start offering more healthy foods that truly are delicious.

I hope they are trending towards healthier foods as well. We can all stand to eat better, especially in light of skyrocketing health insurance costs! America’s economy is in trouble and we are going to have to be fit and healthy to work our way out it!

To Your Health!
