If it tastes too good to be low-cal, it just might be.

A New York CBS station discovered eateries across the Big Apple have laid false claims to how many calories were in the food they served. One Starbucks customer was shocked to discovered that her “skinny”, 12-calorie peach apple tart was in fact 280 calories. The blueberry muffin and pumpkin scone both were also found to be under-reporting calorie totals.

At Dunkin’ Donuts, they found that the turkey, cheddar and bacon sandwich advertised as 360 calories was actually 460. As reported on CBS2Chicago.com, both eateries promise to re-labele the foods with updated information and, in the case of the Starbucks blueberry muffin, labeled as 420 calories but clocking in at 580,  it has been removed from the pastry case until further notice.
