Hi Quick question I was hoping someone would know...
Do flavored coffees have carbs? And I don't mean the prepared drinks that you buy at Starbucks or anythinglike that.. I just mean if you buy Maxwell House Hazelnut and brew it in your plain old coffee maker at home and prepare it with a little cream (no sugar, of course) - does that have carbs?

THanks!

It should be noted that the so-called "flavored" (it would be better termed "chemical-laden") coffee sham is a marketing ploy to dump refuse on consumers by getting rid of what gets sold elsewhere as "coffee-master blend," a metaphor for all the beans that got mixed up, spilled, broken, etc. so they no longer know what blend they belong to. "Coffee-master blend" gets sold in Europe at a significant discount as much less worthy whereas here after that chemical treatment, it still manages to reach a good price because people are being fooled into thinking it's somewhat "hip". Not so. Before people start salivating on "pumpkin spice", "honey Dijon", "smoky Texas barbecue" or "God-only-knows-what"-flavored coffee, they'd better search for a good quality coffee that stands on its own without any chemical alteration. Anyone who's tasted real coffee (not the Starbucks kind) will find no need for the chemically altered witch's brews too many get fooled into purchasing. The chemical additives might indeed hinder weight loss, notwithstanding what the artificial added crap might do to one's health.
