Starbucks adding breakfast fare

CHICAGO (UPI) -- Starbucks plans to offer healthier breakfast options next week in a new effort by the U.S. coffee chain to lure McDonald's morning crowd.

Starbucks' new items, to be offered Wednesday, include an apple bran muffin, oatmeal and a fruit and nut bar. There's also a "power protein plate" featuring a hard-boiled egg, whole wheat bagel, fruit, peanut butter and cheese.

The move is part of a plan by Howard Schultz, chief executive officer and founder of the Seattle chain, which posted a sales drop last year, Crain's Chicago Business reports.
