they "love" it because it's basically a candy bar by the time they drink it.
if i can't drink it straight black im not touching it
^ they're the same people who wear masks for their "health"?
LOL. Truth. Used to manage a Starbucks 13 years ago. Always had the diversity hires and has become a cesspool more so since. Coffee is garbage and overpriced. Buy a $700 espresso machine and make your own.
I think you've hit the nail on the head here, I've been so confused about why people love Starbucks coffee (and also Tim Horton's coffee here in Canada) when they taste so disgusting. Probably because I only drink my coffee black, and they drink it with 3 creams and three sugars. Anything will taste better if you add enough stuff to it.
I'm a tea drinker & never liked or really drank coffee, except for one brand of beans made in Italy that actually wasn't half bad because it wasn't overtly bitter & had some floral notes...
But maybe I've just never had good coffee.
I can't tell if it's that or if it's because my tongue is overly sensitive to the bitter elements found in coffee beans. I'm apparently a super taster, which means I can taste bitterness that other people can't. So maybe that's why I am still not overly fond of even the "good" coffees. I can't even enjoy mocha or coffee flavored smoothies or ice creams. Even if it's just a tiny bit of coffee flavor, it ruins it all for me because the bitterness of coffee just overpowers every other flavor for whatever reason.
So I'd rather have a plain tea over even the sugariest coffee candy drink because the bitterness is a different kind/smoother & the other flavors are stronger & able to show through.
