    Jamba Juice Wraps, Salads and Flatbreads. New Menu!

    Jamba Juice explodes with 18 new menu items. Wow. Trying to give Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts a run for their money? Jamba Juice wraps, salads, flatbreads and teas are all included. Again, wow. 18 items is a lot. Luckily, amidst the Gobble’licious and Caesar the Day wraps, there is one vegan wrap, it’s called the Greens and Grain wrap. But why is it the highest calorie item on the new menu, at 640 calories. Hmm, let’s investigate these 18 new additions and ponder 18 new items!…

    Tea, Wraps, Salads and Flatbreads. Wow. Jamba Juice has added a cornucopia of new food items and I’m here to sort through the good the bad and the ugly.

    Greens and Grains Vegan Wrap at Jamba Juice. The most interesting wrap addition is the 100% vegan wrap. It has 640 calories, 14g fat, 9g fiber and 19g protein. It contains healthy ingredients like protein rich quinoa, refreshing jicama, tahini, chickpeas and a lot more-all crammed into this healthy wrap. It’s a lot of calories, and the sodium content isn’t listed. But I’ll still do a taste test soon. Sounds very interesting. Oh, and it’s all on a spinach tortilla wrap-nice.

    Non-veg Items. Since a lot of my clients, friends and family are not vegan, I am always scoping out the non-veg items. And this is what I found: The healthiest choices in my first-look review are: Couscous and Produce Salad (contains honey), Asian Style Chicken wrap (much lower in fat than the other chicken options), Mediterrani-YUM flatbread and all of the new teas and Ideal Meals look pretty healthy.
    So I’ll be checking these items out first hand soon. And if they pass my test I’ll be sure to review them and let you know….Anyone try them yet???

    Jamba Freebies. Oh, and if you join the Jamba Juice fan page on facebook, they are always offering coupons. Right now they have a $2 off meal coupon and even a $1 baked goods for a limited time. Jamba likes their Jamba fans. Yay.

      the vegan wrap is a waste of calories.
      it doesn't taste bad, but it doesn't taste good either. It's like I just had a tasteless 640 calories. what a waste.
      I don't like mango flavor in my food so I skipped using their stupid dressing. I duno. Jamba does smoothies and that's all they should do. Their pretzels are pretty bland also.

      I'd be excited except this seems pseudo-healthy to me. Great info though!

      Well souldveggie,

      If you only eat once during a busy workday, as many friends and clients of mine do, this 640 calorie vegan wrap might be a energy-saver.

      Sadly, there are a lot of folks out there who skip breakfast, have a coffee break at lunch and don't really get time to sit down to eat until dinner. And then there is the other group of people who are starving by lunchtime and blow their day by giving into a fast food break, a la McDonald's or worse. And let me just remind you that a 640 calorie vegan quinoa wrap- compared to a 2000+ greasy-meaty fast food blitz- is a much healthier option. Quinoa, jicama and chickpeas on a spinach wrap sounds A-OK with me.
      …(Although, if I'm at Jamba, I'm ordering a Acai smoothie-fruit subbed for sherbert. Or a Strawberry Surf Rider-all fruit.)

      Kathy

      A full day's worth of fat and a third of a day's worth of calories.

      How the hell can you call this a "healthy" wrap?

      Wow, 18 items! Sounds like they're trying to compete with places like Au Bon Pain and Cosi, only without the soups and hearth ovens.

      Oh wow that's so neat that they're expanding their menu. Haven't tried those wraps yet but I'll definitely check out their coupons! 🙂 Thanks for the great info!
