If Starbucks is so bad, how come there's one on every corner? They
seem to be busy.


Are you under the impression that McDonald's serve the best beef?

starbucks is about the worst coffee i've ever tasted
it always tastes burnt and have been told they delibrately do this to
extract more caffiene
at $3.50 a cup, it is also the biggest rip off around.

I'd say they burn it so they can get away with using smaller qunatities
of lower quality coffee and still have a cup that has a remote
resemblence to real coffee.

Starbucks is the very embodiment of the liberal snob
philosophy. They will buy themselves cups of coffee
all day long for close to four bucks a pop but will
not give a dime to some poor blind man with his
cup on the street corner. Then they have the nerve
to claim they fight for the oppressed and identify
with the 'little guy'. What a joke!

We must get a deal on Starbuck's here. It's only 2 bucks a large cup....the
cappuccino and latte are expensive, though...when out, my favorite coffee is
gas station/convenience store coffee...Speedway is good....as is Wesco, but
I think that's only in West MI...the BP station has rotten coffee....

Starbuck's ahs a booth at our local superstore (Meijer) so while we were
shopping the other day, Mr Sails went to buy us a cup....when we tasted it,
we thought it burned and returned it and asked for our money back (I will
not pay for crap...) The woman was astounded that we thought the coffee was
bad and insisted that there was no way it could be burned. I told her that
if it wasn't burned then someone needed to wash out their brew machine
because the oils had collected and made the coffee bitter. She still argued
until I finally said I wanted to speak to her manager. What is it with
clerks arguing with customers nowadays? What ever happened to the customer
always being right (not that they are, but clerks should just say "yes,
ma'am and shut up....) The coffee was really bad...you would have had to eat
a jar of TUMS if you'd drunk it all....

Donut.
