Gabz, when you get here can you please put me on your nanny state ping list?
I detest these busy-body control freaks.
Have these "people" ever heard of FREEDOM?
I have no love for Starbucks, but I hate busybodies who are bent on stopping everyone else from having fun! :-)
Crud, I just had one of those banana crunch bars. It sucked. And it had a gazillion calories. Great.
and that's the point, you didn't know what was in it. if it had been posted that it had that many calories and 25g of fat, would you have bought it?
As long as their at it, go after Ben & Jerry's. Fat Fat Fat.
>>IT'S CALLED FREEDOM OF CHOICE!
Freedom of Choice
A victim of collision on the open sea
Nobody ever said that life was free
Sank, swam, go down with the ship
But use your freedom of choice
Ill say it again in the land of the free
Use your freedom of choice
Your freedom of choice
In ancient rome there was a poem
About a dog who found two bones
He picked at one
He licked the other
He went in circles
He dropped dead
Freedom of choice
Is what you got
Freedom of choice!
Then if you got it you dont want it
Seems to be the rule of thumb
Dont be tricked by what you see
You got two ways to go
Ill say it again in the land of the free
Use your freedom of choice
Freedom of choice
Freedom of choice
Is what you got
Freedom of choice!

This is the workers union of the employees of Starbucks. Sort of like Starbucks is providing an unhealthy work environment!

Please stop trying to protect me from myself if I want a darn hamburger let me if i want a bannana mocha with extra whip let me IF PEOPLE HAD SELF CONTROL for godsake I cant even order a hamburger at my job because the food police have ex out all foods this is really out of control
This is dangerous "junk science". Every diabetic knows its the breading and the buns killing people ~ NOT THE FAT!
The Center for Science in the Public Interest
OTOH, starbucks probably deserves it considering their support of those that support the Nanny State.
NANNY STATE PING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why I believe the answer to that is...yes there is.
' ths issue is, how are you supposed to know if its not disclosed."
Over by the cream and sugar, are brochures " You, Starbucks and Nutrition " listing the nutritional contents of all their beverages and foods.
They break it down into size and options- fat free, soy, whipped cream or none, etc.
Plus, it's also available on their website.
BULLCRAP.............the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation funds them.......and they tow the line that RWJF tells them to...........anti hospitality industry - PERIOD.
And BTW - they are also anti 2nd Amendment.
And they both are very good!
I'll spend my money on what I like as long as I am capable and enjoy it without others opinions as to what I like or can tolerate safely.
Michael, let me explain something to you. Most of us already kind of knew a lot of this stuff is unhealthy and we like it anyway. Bugger off.
You're on the list as of now...........
I totally DESPISE busy bodies!!!!!!
I am just not a starbucks kind of guy.
I agree with you that he and his kind need to bugger off - but they won't..........they truly believe they know better than the rest of us.
