Does anyone know if the flavored Keurig coffees have a significant amount of calories in them? I love the hazelnut, caramel and French vanilla flavors (yum sweet coffee) and while the caramel has a nutrition label on the box, the other two don't so I'm not sure how to log it. I've poked around the webs and haven't found anything so I was wondering if you all knew/what you do.

    As long as it's just coffee and not a cappucino or something, it shouldn't have any more cals than regular coffee.

    I drink extra bold donut shop k-cups by coffee people and it has 5 calories in 1 k-cup serving now I add to scoop of pure cane sugar (15 calories x 2) and 2 tbsp of International Delight Hershey chocolate and caramel creamer (45 calories x 2) so I got roughly 125 calories in my morning travel mug. I know certain kcups have far more calories but those are the specialty ones. The just coffee ones have very minimal calories... Best of Luck

    Thanks so much! I think I'll just count them as 5cals unless there's a nutrition label on the box that says otherwise like the caramel ones (60cals). :) I just got my Keurig today and am having fun with it now.

    The brand Cafe Escapes makes flavored coffee k-packs that are already sweetened and with cream. Those have around 60 cals each. Otherwise I think all other flavored coffee K-cups are just plain coffee with flavors. No sugar or cream, just 5 cals. It's a nice treat that's guilt-free. I love mine with a bit of stevia and splash of milk. Enjoy your Keurig, it's the best purchase I made in 2012. Love my coffee!!

    Did you use the MFP database? I looked on here and they have several listed. Just type it in.

    If they don't have a nutrition label they usually are around 4 calories. The ones w/the big calories will have the label (Chai Latte for example).

    Love my Keurig!

    A lot of these are already in the database.

    yea, I saw that there were a bunch in the database... but they taste so good I thought they had to be wrong! lol. and I've found other items in the database that were wrong (don't ask me what 'cause I don't remember) so I figured these could be wrong too.
