As most of you all know Im working in a coffee shop now... I decided to check out some stats on coffee. Plain Generic Black Coffee has 1 to 5.4 calories...depending on the brand and flavor. The coffee I serve has 2.5 calories per cup... Not bad... But I decided to do a check on my other place to go for coffee.... * Starbucks...and lo and behold Starbucks has a list for all its coffees.. Now there is too much to type and  Reading some of it scares the bejezzus out of me..

My Favorite is the white Chocolate Mocha with whipped cream....Hold on to it...720 calories with 49.5 g of Fat.. Now that scares me... But the other one I like is the Caffe Mocha..510 calories for a tall with 39.7 g of Fat.... My sister loves the Caramel Macchiato Tall-sized with Breve milk 414 calories with 39.6g of Fat... Holy crap... I never realized that all of these good coffees were soooo bad for you.

As a Canadian as most of us do , we love our Tim Hortons as well Ummmm well I checked it out.. My four and four large is 460 calories and 24g of fat and with a Honey Cruller it comes to 780 calories and 43 g of fat. Now if I got the Breakfast sandwich insted its 970 calories with 57g of fat I think Im going to stay home with my coffee and toast... You can too check some of the stuff you love at  Tim Hortons too JUST CLICK HERE its scary on how much junk we put in our coffee

 But I decided to take a look at some of the stuff that we put in our coffee at home you know cream, sugar and all that stuff. All of this is based on one Table spoon

Hi Joylene! Thanks for visiting! That's pretty serious stuff you've posted, here; good thing I use evaporated milk as my creamer and Stevia as my sweetener, otherwise I'd have to give up my favorite beverage altogether.

Glad you enjoyed today's offerings, Joylene; I hope to see you again, some time.
