Smoothies At Caribou Coffee

Does anyone know the ingredients in the Passion Fruit Green Tea smoothy from Caribou Coffee? I've looked on their website for nutritional information and it just lists the common stuff - calories, sugar, sodium, etc. The actual ingredients are not found. My daughter loves these and I want to make sure that they're safe for her to drink. The people actually serving the beverages don't have a clue.

I recently got this response from the customer service rep. I got this within the past week:

Thank you for taking time to write us with your questions. We at Caribou

Coffee are sensitive to the needs of our customers with dietary

restrictions, including gluten allergies. We are consistently working to

make these concerns known and to produce such nutritional information

available more readily, however, we unfortunately do not have a list

compiled. Coffee and espresso contain no gluten or soy, nor does regular

or 2% milk, also, our flavored syrups are gluten-free. For this reason,

our coffee of the day, lattes and cappuccinos are not considered serious

gluten or soy risks. Also, our flavored syrups and chocolate syrups are

gluten-free. No such claim can be made for our specialty drinks

(Coolers, mochas, Wild drinks) as many ingredients (such as candy

toppings) come from third party vendors. If you wish, these items can be

made without topping to avoid these ingredients.

Please note that at Caribou, as at all restaurants, cross-contamination

is not an insignificant risk. We will do our best to accommodate your

dietary restrictions but remind you that the ultimate decision -- and

responsibly -- is yours alone. I hope this information is helpful to you

as you make your coffee decisions. I have also passed your

correspondence to the Marketing department to consider in their future

nutritional information offerings. If I can be of any further

assistance, please let me know. Thank you again for your inquiry and for

making Caribou a part of your coffee experience!

Sincerely,

Lisa Curski

Customer Relations Specialist

Caribou Coffee Company

      Does anyone else get soaking wet sweats just out of nowhere? I’m not in menopause, there’s nothing wrong with me except celiac disease and my thyroid, and I’m taking my medicine. I am 18 days gluten-free but I cannot stop sweating and it makes me freezing cold and I’m soaking wet and changing my clothes literally as I’m changing my clothes the new clothes are soaking wet and nobody will help me. Please somebody out there help me.

      Sometimes I end up spitting out a drink of water! But for the most part I do ok with the liquids that I've been sticking to which Is hardly anything carbonated (meaning diet soda mainly)  I drink alot of tea which I make myself lipton cold brew sweetened with half sugar and half Splenda, smoothies when I could in the beginning but made with milk so I'm now using orange juice instead of the milk but it doesn't workout real often I drink black coffee in the mornings with no trouble usually and I've been experimenting with some juices but the sugar content is a set back I'm not a huge water fan but will drink it unfortunately where I live I can't do the tap water I'm the only one who has a problem with it apparently but for some reason I just can't...unless I'm using it in coffee or tea and the tea even took me some time to stand yes I have thought about boost/ ensure but they are very costly for someone who is scrapping the bottom at this time

      Do you believe your swallowing is a manifestation of your neuropathy? I'm thinking if you are having trouble getting food down you need to focus on consuming things that have a high nutritional density so that whatever you are able to get down counts for something. Have you looked at Boost and other high protein/high calorie shake products?  They are fortified with vitamins and minerals as well. Do you have any trouble with aspiration of liquids? For celiac testing purposes, the guidelines are calling for daily consumption of about 10gm of gluten - the amount in about 4-6 slices of bread - in order to ensure valid testing. That sounds like it would be a challenger for you.

      Thank you and I am aware that I should be eating a "normal" diet until tested it's kind of been trial and error for my diet or more like just ERROR! I about 1-3 bites a meal I'm to a point that 99 percent of the time I'm having trouble swallowing just about everything occasionally I find either something or a very small window of time that allows me to get very little of something! I am basically getting zero nutrition what so ever because I take one bite of the meal that I usually just slaved over just to end up tossing it when it's all said and done...did anyone else ever experience anything like this?  I am more then open to suggestions! It is taking a very extreme toll on me and my body forsure
