Chantico

Sounds like a good name for an R&B artist, huh?

Nope, it's Starbucks's new dessert drink. It's a super rich hot chocolate with a fancy name.

I wanted to try one, until I found out its caloric content: 390 calories and 21 grams of fat ... per 6 ounce cup.

Here's a good quote from a USA Today article: This should be a very occasional treat — like maybe on your 100th birthday.

Now if you'll excuse me I have a bowl of hamster feed yogurt to finish.

You know...I would think we could get away with, say, a little less than 2 ounces of that fabulous-sounding stuff on our thirtieth birthdays then, don't you? :-)

But of course!

I've seriously considered buying a cup, taking a sip, and throwing it in the fridge to create a block of chocolate. :)
