Starbucks, the one place in the world where you can order a cup of whipped cream with a shot of caramel syrup and call it coffee, is ready to make you healthy.

Fresh off its universally applauded "Race Together" campaign, which forced the wrong advocates to get in the face of the wrong audience in the wrong venue to talk about racism in the least racist country in the world, now they want to be pushy about the amount of vegetables you're eating every day.

And they are doing it with kale. 

Now, maybe there is a lot of extra kale sitting in warehouses because that food fad is over, there can't be any other reason they would choose that for their latest bit of nanny advocacy.

Starbucks Wants to Stuff Fists Full Of Kale Down Your Thirsty Gullet by Mark Shrayber, Jezebel.
