I was pretty excited to see that Starbucks is offering a bunless egg option.  Even if I don’t have breakfast, it is just nice to have options out in the world.  Still, if you look at the nutrition information, each serving has 13 grams of carbs, only one of those coming from fiber.  Looking down the list at the ingredients one finds potato and rice starch.  I assume that’s where the carb content comes from, though I can’t say for sure.  There’s also canola oil and every thickening gum in the industrial pantry.  I’m also kind of a weirdo about things cooked in plastic, as I believe these are.  You know, all of those estrogens shooting into the food and whatnot.  Ugh, it is so hard to eat clean in a Jiffy when you’re afraid everything is going to make you fat and full of cancer.

Just for your perusal:
