Social Responsibilities 1. health Aspecta.Find better ways to cut down on fat and caloriesIs Starbucks adding to the growing weight problem with American society? You be the judge. I personally was shocked at the nutritional facts on their products ( go out 1). whatsoever fast food places offer healthier products than both(prenominal) of the Starbucks products (Figure 2). The nutritional facts circled in red in figure 1 and figure 2 shows that wholeness cup of Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Crme with whip is less nutritional than an entire meal at McDonalds. Imagine what the nutritional facts would look manage if you included a Classic Coffee Cake with your deep brown drinking (Figure 1.2)The Starbucks nutritional values listed below are not completely faultless as shown in the following statement The nutrition information for beverages is found on Starbucks standardized beverage recipes.

Starbucks is offering non-fat milk and soy to do trim down the fat and calories. The alternative ingredients do alter the serrated wrack a bit, so it may not be the choice of some customers. b.Advertise to public about fat content of their productsIt seems l ike Starbucks doesnt want the general public to really know how baffling the nutritional facts are right up front in their stores. If you walk into a Starbucks store you see mostly pictures of some of their least nutritional coffee beverages because they look the most appetizing. I think if more people knew how bad Starbucks products were they would see a significant reduction in revenue. This would be specially true with todays low carb, low fat health trends.Starbucks does however provide a nice nutritional facts chart on their website, but who is looking at the website while ordering anyway? So as far as I can tell Starbucks plans on feeding Americas sweet tooth and will continue to fatten up them up.
