No More Tall at Starbucks

Starbucks plans to remove the 12-ounce “tall” from its drive-through menus.

The Seattle-based coffee chain has also added images of some newer items. Starbucks maintains the changes are in response to consumer confusion over its many offerings, from hot chocolate to oatmeal, as well as highly customizable coffee beverages.

But the redesigned drive-through menu also makes room for federally mandated calorie information at chain restaurants, which is expected late next year. The provision was part of the health care reform bill passed last year. Restaurants with 20 or more locations will be required to post calorie counts on menus, menu boards and drive-throughs.
