Oat Caramel Macchiato

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 4 ingredients to avoid

Starbucks Oat Caramel Macchiato scores 38/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. Per serving it carries 1g protein and 10g sugar. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Starbucks Oat Caramel Macchiato lists 16 ingredients, starting with Haverbasis, Water, Haver, Starbucks® Arabica Koffie and Koffie-extract. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

92 kcal per serving, or 42 kcal per 100ml. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Starbucks Oat Caramel Macchiato on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 38/100 Starbucks Oat Caramel Macchiato scores worse than most coffee we have scored. A higher-scoring option in coffee is Purity Coffee FLOW Organic Medium Roast Whole Bean Coffee at 100/100.
