Taylor Swift easily ranks among the most iconic artists around now. That said, she constantly reminds us how normal she is through her Instagram profile. Whether it is pictures of her renowned girl squad, her adorable cats or snaps of her day-to-day life, she doesn't waste an opportunity to show that she is just another normal person in day-to-day life.
We have also learned that Taylor Swift likes to stay healthy. So naturally, she opts for a diet that better suits her lifestyle and gives her the energy she needs for recording and live performances. Nonetheless, she loves to sneak in a treat or two into her diet when the opportunity arises. So what does Swifty like to eat? Starting off with a fan favorite, Taylor loves hummus, so much so that she has a fresh pot of hummus in her fridge at any given time, waiting to be paired with cucumbers and carrot sticks.
Orange juice and coffee are two of her go-to drinks. Just like everyone else, a glass of orange juice keeps her going for the rest of the day and the citrusy flavor gives that extra punch. As for the latter, oddly enough, she enjoys hot coffee with …cookies, but hey we are not judging!
More importantly, the extra caffeine in coffee is an ideal boost for late-night songwriting. Taylor is often spotted picking up fried chicken while on tours and it is easy to understand why. After all, who doesn't like a bit of fried chicken now and then? Adding to her love for chicken, chicken and dumplings are another favorite combo she loves. Every time she’s in Nashville, she makes it a point to have them. Last but not least, homemade baked goods – especially cookies and cookie dough – are among her best-loved foods. She likes baking as a hobby, because she finds it soothing, and someone has to eat those treats!

Love Caffeine? You Need This in Your Life
There are times in the morning when you might be struggling and one cup of coffee simply isn’t enough. Maybe you need more caffeine streaming through your veins to help you get through that long list of things to do, but coffee just isn’t hitting the spot anymore.
Behold, the caffeine bagel! From Einstein Bros Bagels, this is a bakery product unlike any other. It contains as much caffeine as you’d find in a third of a cup of coffee, from beans that have been added to the dough before baking. It’s the perfect accompaniment to your morning espresso as the added caffeine hit pushes you along! Coffee in bread sounds efficient as well as tasty.
And the bagel isn’t just available on its own. With fillings like bacon and eggs or cheese, it can be enjoyed at lunchtime too, making sure that the afternoon starts with a buzz. It may be a taste to get used to, but why not?
Einstein Bros are doing their bit for our wonderful nurses too. They’re offering free products for them as part of National Nurses Week. If ever there was a job where you’d need the double-caffeine hit of the bagel and the regular coffee, it’s working as a nurse on a busy hospital ward! The company’s diversification into caffeine-based bread products has been researched thoroughly and isn’t a fad. Their head of marketing has gone on record in interviews as saying that they know that this is what their new, millennial audience want and so they’re providing it.
This increase in coffee consumption has only fuelled the need for different products. More and more younger consumers are being turned back onto the drink which they previously associated with their parents and teachers, because of smoother tastes that are being introduced.
If the caffeine bagel is just as smooth, it’ll be a winner!
