Today is your day Boomer! I have mixed feelings over this bit of news. Starbucks, the famous coffee maker, is introducing a new line of coffee laced with virgin, infused olive oil! Supporters say this is just another tasty option to add to an-already great coffee and it has its cultural origins in the hills of Italy. Critics say it is just another money maker for the huge company and is similar to people adding fatty milk or cream. Olive oil, however, may be a healthier alternative, as the liquid gold contains anti-inflammatory compounds that may benefit your heart, bone and digestive health while also aiding to stabilize blood sugar levels. Sounds good, I guess. Maybe worth a try. But hold it, the new Oleato "liquid gold" brand is just coming out. It will be available in the U.S., the U.K., Japan and the Middle East later this year. Starbucks says the company does not currently have plans to expand the oily option to Canada. Boomer Starbucks coffee addicts will just have to wait. Maybe try your own oil infusion at home?! Cheers to great coffee!
