They are back in Starbucks! AIBU to have one every day because they are addictive?

They are absolutely packed with sugar. You’ll have diabetes by Christmas. Not to mention the calories!

Oysterbabe · 05/09/2018 21:18

Ah I can't believe that time of year is upon us again Grin
YANBU.

distantstars · 05/09/2018 21:19

Ive never had one .... might have to try one since I get a free weekly Starbucks.... be rude not to ......

Yabu the syrup tasted strangely artificial last year. I used to love them!

They will probably run out of them by November and I have a tall skinny one with no cream.

YABU. They are vile.

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 05/09/2018 21:20

Price was the only thing to make me calm my caramel macchiato addiction. The amount of calories and sugar seemed worth it, the £3.50 did not

Leatherboundanddown · 05/09/2018 21:21

Haha! You need to watch Iliza shlesinger's stand up on Netflix!

delphguelph · 05/09/2018 21:23

£3.50?

That’s 280 calories a day, a grande semi skimmed with cream is nearly 400 calories! Shock

Maybe IABU. One every other day then.

Ooh I really want one now after reading this... 😋
Every year I struggle to resist their gingerbread lattes.

restingbemusedface · 05/09/2018 21:27

They are horrible! And basic AF

AcrossthePond55 · 05/09/2018 21:31

Oh go on, do! We need our little splurge.

It's only around for a few months. The gym will be waiting WinkGrin

crow2018 · 05/09/2018 21:33

This makes me so happy 😂

DwangelaForever · 05/09/2018 21:43

I've never actually tasted one 🤔

agnurse · 05/09/2018 21:51

While they are SO yummy they do pack in a lot of sugar.

Probably not the best for your system.

TheMagicTorch · 05/09/2018 21:54

Just read online today Greggs will be doing them this year for £2.20 (or free tomorrow if you have the rewards app)

llangennith · 05/09/2018 22:04

Do they do a light version?

OhYouBadBadKitten · 05/09/2018 22:06

I wish they did exciting non milk based drinks like these.

BigBlueBubble · 05/09/2018 22:06

I get a small skinny one with half the amount of syrup. They don’t do a sugar free version of the syrup unfortunately.

Amanduh · 05/09/2018 22:08

They’re disgusting so yes Grin

TheHobbitMum · 05/09/2018 22:09

Why not buy the syrup at make them at home? Will be cheaper but not quite the same lol

Thishatisnotmine · 05/09/2018 22:09

I guzzeled loads when pregnant. Then they took them away! Get your own non Starbucks reusable cup to remove all basicness.
