I never realized how many calories my occasional cup of latte was until I looked it up on Starbuck's website. A normal cup of coffee contains 5 calories for a tall (12 oz.) A latte is made from espresso and milk. An espresso contains 5 calories per shot. Now 5 calories isn't something to even think twice about until you add milk. Once you add milk, a latte suddenly contains 200 calories! O.o Holy smokes! How did the calorie count suddenly go up so quickly? It's the milk. Now I know why I've never had a fondness for it. It's time to think twice about running out for that quick cup of coffee. Watch your calories people otherwise you'll end up in the obese American category.
