Free pastries at Starbucks next Tuesday morning
Starbucks Corp. said it will be giving a free pastry to customers buying any beverage on Tuesday, July 21, before 10:30 a.m. Simply purchase any handcrafted beverage and bring this invitation to a participating U.S. store, or show it to a barista on your mobile device.
Pastries included in this offer are: Muffins, scones, bagels, croissants, rolls, breads, pound cakes, morning bun, coffeecakes, cheese danish, apple fritter, doughnuts, tarts, pies, gluten-free orange Valencia cake and tropical paradise bar.
Starbucks claims its new pastry items are healthier because they’re made without artificial flavors, artificial dyes, artificial trans fats or high fructose corn syrup, but let’s face it, “healthier” is a relative term here, and these will still make you fat.

idk my friend said he saw a nutritional info thing showing they still have transfat… third one i looked up had it too http://www.starbucks.com/retail/nutrition_food_detail.asp?selProducts=%7B5C2817DA%2D3270%2D4F18%2DB860%2D5618FF9BA57A%7D&store=3235&foodZone=102
@Michael Lopez If you read my post carefully, it says no “artificial” trans fats, which in legalistic terms means they could still have “natural” trans fats, I guess. Frankly, I didn’t know there was such as thing as artificial trans fats. I still prefer butter. I guess it’s like Woody Allen said in his film, Sleeper: Everything your mother said was bad for you is really good for you.
