Starbucks Frappucino Has More Fat Than Big Mac

Group Criticizes Starbucks Over Nutrition Information

One frappucino at Starbucks can pack 770 calories and more fat than a Big Mac, 10News reported.

This is why the consumer group that's suing KFC over its fatty foods is now criticizing Starbucks.

The group wants all restaurant nutrition information placed on menu boards.

Starbucks -- as well as many other chains -- does list calories and fat on Web sites.

But The Center For Science In The Public Interest said it's not good enough.

Starbucks offers reduced fat choices and said the company is committed to making nutrition information easily available.
