low carb lattes!
 
Most major coffee shops offer organic or soy milk for lattes. I was wondering if we could make enough of a difference to these places if we all suggested they start making lattes with Hood's Carb Countdown milk as well. I've given up lattes, but if these were available, I'd totally be able to treat myself once in awhile. Whatdya think?

I talked to our local Starbuck's about offering Splenda (in addition to the Equal and Sweet n Low that they usually have) and what do you know last week I went in there and they HAD it!!

So...it never hurts to ask.

Lattes made with soy slender are amazing and only 1g net for 8oz.

You can get your own cappachino machine fairly cheaply at walmart of other kitchen applience stores. They also have wand like milk steamer if you want to mix steamed milk with regular coffee.

I've found it much cheaper cash and carb wise to just get the coffee of the day with a shot of sugar free syrup and some cream from starbucks. Then I make my own lattes at home when I feel like a treat. Since it is typically later in the evening I can also make them decaf and have a warm creamy dessert treat.
