I used to like 7-11 coffee before they tried to be Starbucks.





The "Starbucks" sort of coffee is too strong for my taste.

If the Starbucks coffees are too strong for you' then you're a girlie-girl.

Actually, Mr Nofinger, this is one point I have to agree with him on.
Shocking eh? Starbucks tastes like it was brewed two days ago and kept
warm. Awful stuff.

I dont' have a problem with Starbucks coffees, whether strong or not. To me, Coffee is coffee. My wife loves the place though.

But when there I order...coffee. Not some coffee flavored drink with some googly Italian name.

Forget it Tim, no excuses.. you drink googly coffee, even if you just
call it coffee...

Scott, the only "google" coffees I know of have names like "Gran-DAY" and "lah-TAY". I get my usual 44oz. of Bunn at the gas station every morning. That lasts me till noon!

Don't drink their bold flavors! I like the bold ones, but my wife can't stand them. They always have
a milder coffee on tap.
