Marketing marketing, in the Philippines I saw a coffee shop chain that touted their using only robusta beans. LOL
Like the Barbecue restaurants touting "Emm Brisket"
Robusto is the crappy cheaper bean, just like brisket is the toughest piece of cow meat. Smoking sure does wonders, but I'm pretty sure if you smoked better quality cuts it would be even yummier.
I have no idea, but yeah, I don't buy Chinese goods if I can avoid it, but also don't buy products made in USA that are overpriced because 'Made In USA'.
Labor isn't as big a part of the equation as we have been brainwashed to think. I worked in a factory bottling soda and the plant manager told me labor was 1.5% of costs. Someone posted a comment claiming that labor averaged 17% of the costs in manufacturing overall.
Buy American, but don't get ripped of by Patriotism predators. Buy from countries where the worker's get more than starvation wages. China as last resort...
The coffee tastes yucky. Almond croissant was the only good thing.
Ever use a French Press to make coffee? Makes a great cup of coffee out of ok coffee. I mostly use flavors in my coffee, almond croissant sounds good.
They have the best almond croissant. I used to buy 6 at one time so I can snack on them.
Coffee, no thank you.

I should look for a French Press and not Chinese made. LOL
