Whats vegan at starbucks that wont make you gain eleven pounds?!
but starbucks would be
the hardest thing to give
up (dont give me bull crap
for this statment). I usually
get a coffee lite frapp or a
skinny vanilla latte. Only
problem is that those are
milk based and you cant get
it with soy. The regular lattes
can be soy but they have
like 4 grams of fat and 240
calories for a grande, umm
hello? Any alternatives?

You can try their soy steamed cafe misto, which is half soy milk and half coffee. Kind of tastes like a latte with an extra shot.
There's also iced coffee drinks - you can get an iced latte and it's pretty much like half a latte because they fill the rest of the cup with ice.
It's impossible that the soy latte has 240 calories for a grande - have you looked at the nutritional information at the Starbucks site? A VENTI soy latte in the US has 220 calories or something like that. Grande is far less - I think 160 or something, but I haven't looked at it in like a year (I was actually checking it a year ago when I was pregnant to look if they list caffeine content, to see what was OK and what wasn't). I pretty much have memory like a steel trap though so I'll remember numbers forever, so I can vouch for those figures.
Besides, 200-some calories is nothing, if you spend an hour walking around the mall after you get the latte you'll burn it off so it's honestly not going to make you fat either way. It will NOT make you fat. :)
haha probably just a plane black coffee with no sugar or cream or any other crap in it.
I read on another site a while back that the soy mocha is vegan. Ask them to be sure, they will even let you look at the ingredients if you ask them.
