Starbucks Protein boxes

My weight watches friends only take the veggie bistro box. I was wondering if the Protein bistro boxes are good for bandsters, if a person tracks the calories in their daily intake.

For those of you not familiar they are pre packaged (which I like to grab on hectic days), includes natural peanutbutter (80 calories), a hard boiled peeled egg, 2 triangles of cheese, grapes, apples and a small pita (I think whole wheat). I think 240 calories total. Maybe 340. I can check on myfitness pal or on the box the next time I see one.

Here are the questions I was wondering others opinions...

Are they high in sodium?

Would once a week be too often to have one?

How would you spread out the portion size as the most you would eat?(all in one meal, a meal and a snack, 2 meals)

What is the worst thing about them?

Would you chose a difft bistro box over this one? Why?

...If you are totally against Starbucks, that's different, I mean for people who are open to Starbucks.

I don't know if they are good for bandsters as I have not got mine yet, however my son has type 1 diabetes and need to eat good carbs and proteins and eats the protein one a lot contains good amount of protein and healthy carbs

Try it. Everyone is different. It might be more than 1 meal for me.

Everything is ok as long as it isn't in excess.

I agree with post above ... And frequently get the protein box. I usually don't eat the eggs, cuz I only eat hard boiled eggs from home, but the rest is pretty good and I split it up into lunch and a small snack about 3-4 hours later. They're a little pricey, but good on the go!
