Kurt Hummel was a careful eater. His friends described him as picky, but he assured them that he was not picky; he was careful. He never ate fried or processed food, and he counted calories, carbohydrates, and fat grams conscientiously. Lunch was usually a salad (light dressing on the side, please). Kurt ate very little meat, got plenty of green, leafy vegetables in his diet, and consumed only complex carbohydrates like whole grains. Whenever possible, he ate organic and locally sourced food. The very idea of eating any other way just seemed so…wrong.

Kurt's one indulgence was his daily café mocha. In the afternoon Isabelle, his boss at Vogue.com, would inevitably send Kurt on a coffee run, and Kurt would splurge part of his meager pay check on the drink he loved more than any other.

However, even with his daily mocha, Kurt was careful. He always ordered decaffeinated espresso, because he spent too much time moisturizing to have all that work undone by caffeine. Kurt insisted that the hot milk be skim, so that he would always be assured of fitting into his tightest skinny pants. And, of course, Kurt only went to coffee houses that used cocoa powder in their mochas, never chocolate syrup, because God only knew what chemicals were in chocolate syrup.

But Kurt wasn't too careful. He did always order the medium size (or grande, as they called it at Starbucks), and sometimes he ordered the venti but never the small.
