Next on menu for Starbucks? It's hot food

According to New York Daily News, Starbucks is making changes to its menu. The coffee giant got 12 percent of its $4 billion in sales through food last year, mostly with cold items like cookies, muffins and salads. But ideal spots for more restaurants are dwindling after a sizzling pace over the past decade led to 6,300 U.S. locations along with 2,400 abroad. So hot food, including breakfast and lunch sandwiches, is where Starbucks hopes to find its next big wave of sales growth, which has averaged 31 percent over the past five years.
