Dunkin Carbs
Today I am sitting at my desk, sipping away at my huge Dunkin Donuts coffee, and feeling like my blood sugar is screaming through the roof. (I was right, 182 ugh) I thought to myself that the only thing I had today that I wasn't sure how many carbs were contained was the coffee I am drinking, since I didn't prepare it myself.
I know that coffe in general has no carbs, but since I didn't know how much cream they put in, I thought I would check their website to see if they have a standard amount listed, so I could figure it out. I was planning on being dissapointed, but instead was pleasantly surpriused.
Dunkin Donuts includes nutritional information for all of their products, including coffee. (Which theirs has about 3 grams of carbs per serving - This is the reason my sugar was higher than expected! They sweeten their coffee a bit, and a large coffee is a few servings.)
Not only do they list this information, but they also break it out by how you like your coffee, with cream, with milk, with cream and sugar, etc. You get the idea. It's nice to see a company do something not only the right way, but 100% of the way instead of copping out and putting only one listing up there. This is what the web is about. Content. Content. Content.
Gotta go shoot up.
