This morning I thought I'd grab a bite for breakfast after my weight watcher's meeting and wondered what to order. I looked at the food available, everything seemed to have eggs or cheese or milk. I decided to get the soy latte and a plain oatmeal with 1/2 of the raisins. I think that's OK for vegan, but wondered if there's anything else that's OK to eat at a place like Starbucks? I may have to find some kind of vegan snack bar to have on hand in case of "emergency" so I don't have to sit there with nothing while other people eat the goodies. Any ideas?

I'll have to stop in one to try the soy latte! As far as having something to munch on when there are no vegan options, I take along a piece of fresh fruit like an apple, pear, peach, or plum...something which doesn't need to be peeled...or a small box of raisins. dodink58

I wouldn't trust any of the baked goods. I've seen trail mix packs there before and fruit. I've also seen 'protein plates' that have hummus and pita bread and veggies but it probably also includes eggs or cheese. You could ask if you could have a custom plate without the animal products. And while I don't go to Starbucks often, I've always chosen a chai soy latte long before transitioning to a Vegan diet. I just found it tasted better.

I doubt anything besides their oatmeal is vegan. Well, maybe some of their bagels. Those are usually made with some oil so higher in calories, but not dairy (unless they are the asiago cheese ones ). Check out their menu online and/or contact them directly via phone or email. - Amanda Be the change you wish to see in the world...
