Coffee, that is.

Which? magazine has carried out some research that suggests that some of the major coffee chains serve up coffees, such as mocha coffee made with full-fat milk and topped with whipped cream, which are very heavy in calories.
Well blow me down - and there was me thinking it would contribute to any good weight loss diet!

How dare they Erroll!!!!!
I'm sure we'd all prefer to have no choice - I wonder when the 'size' police will stop them serving it with milk.

Is there that nasty stimulant stuff - coffee - in the cups as well?
Better put a stop to that - the masses may start thinking!!!!

I pondered upon this whilst munching upon a fine kebab - although I must be honest in that it had no trimmings - and decided I don't really care - mind you I am only eleven stone.

you have to ask for a skinny one if you want it with semi-skimmed. or a black coffee with a jug of milk lol. While we seem to have adopted the coffee shop over here more and more, we don't appear to have gained the american coffee shop lingo. You see it on some of these shows and they're asking for stuff like a "skinny tall latte with extra foam" lol.
