Mary, I roll my eyes too at those lawsuits, and my mother could NOT get me to eat brussel sprouts (or my wife for that matter)!

Ann, I’m thinking about going to the 2% myself – after all, it’s a numbers game in the end and luckily I’m good at the calorie math (I read a LOT of labels!). I also noted that a cappuccino has less milk than a latte, so the calorie count on even a regular milk grande goes down to 170 from 260. Bottom line, it’s good to be an informed consumer!

All the best to you both.

I’m a Grande 2% Cappuccino person myself – why? Because I’m trying to balance carbs and fat. I have looked at their website and made decisions on what to order before I get there.

If I over indulge it’s my fault not theirs!

Even our mothers can’t force us to do the right thing (or eat our brussel sprouts) So, we shouldn’t expect companies to somehow magically do it.

This is why I roll my eyes when I read of yet another lawsuit against a fast food chain or tobacco companies. Hello? We know that eating five Big Macs a day will likely make us fat and we’ve also known that smoking is really, really bad for us for – gee, I dunno – 35 years? (This doesn’t mean, however, I condone predatory advertising).
