Those Starbucks eats always look so good!! But why don’t they make any of those pastries/cakes non-dairy? It drives me insane! If anyone from Starbucks is reading this, could you please show some love to the non-dairy crowd? If anyone knows of anything (besides the oatmeal) that doesn’t have milk or eggs in it, please let me know.

Woah..those treats look so good! Thanks for the reviews.

I love my Griddler – so many ways to use it and it’s easy to clean!

That is so exciting! I actually used to love the reduced fat cinnamon swirl cake but I haven’t had it in ages because I know how “bad” it is, so I’m glad to hear they are changing up the ingredients, I will have to try it again!

I love plantains

Starbucks is my true love and I am so happy that they are trying to improve their products. I have never tried any of their food and probably won’t in the future but it still makes me proud to be a Starbucks lover! : )

I absolutely adore Starbucks, so I was happy to hear of their menu changes (albeit a little sad that I think they couldn’t appropriately modify their fab Lemon Loaf, so it’s off the menu), but we still need to be health-conscious there. I was looking for a little sweet treat a couple months ago and got ONE of their vanilla bean scones, only to learn they are 140 calories EACH. Yes, it’s low compared to other items, but higher than expected (I thought it would be just under 100 calories).

That was a great post, Tina! Thanks for the review on all of those items. I’ll definitley be scoping some out when I go to Starbucks next.

Wow, these new starbuck goods look awesome. I can’t wait to try them (especially the parfaits, they sound fabulous!)

I love your dinner idea. Grilled squash is so nice in the summer but making a sandwich out of it would be a great dinner idea.

Hope you are having a great week Tina!
