calorie counting :)

since i drink free Starbucks fraps at least once a month (courtesy of HSBC), i really made an effort to ask the local barista if they have nutritional info of their products. was so glad when she gave me their 'nutrition by the cup' brochure! at least i now know what not to order. ;) i also wanted to get those information so i can confirm what's written on the MFP database.


if i write all the Starbucks drinks here with their corresponding caloric value, this will be a 3-page post so let me just mention what they call 'delicious choices under 200 calories'. here they go:
