Speak Out: Will Starbucks Calorie Labels Matter to You?

Starbucks announced this week that it will begin highlighting the calorie counts of its drinks and pastries.

The calories are going to be front and center -- on menu boards and pastry cases. The calorie labels will be based on the basic recipe. That's sans any extra goodies you want to add.

The change is set to roll out June 25 at Starbucks across the country, including several in the Buford area.
