Drink that swill enough and no surgery will be required...
Underrated comment. It’s a shame that “swill” has fallen out of the vernacular. It’s a great noun.
Starbucks is dead to me. Kids see this and read this.
Not my kids 🤠
As a "coffee snob" myself, I cannot STAND Starbucks coffee, it tastes burned to me. I cold brew my own (less acid, brings out the natural sweetness) and now detest any inferior coffee when I'm out in public.
Plus there is the ever-present wokeness at Starbucks that I started noticing a few years ago, before I started my cold brew process. Back then Starbucks had cultivated a sort of hip reputation, but all I really wanted back then was a simple cup of coffee, black, and a quiet place to read or use my laptop on their WiFi. Instead it was latte this, frappachino that, grande, etc, and I refused to learn their language.
Good riddance.
Their own language was the whole reason I avoided this place to begin with! I remember YEARS ago, like when we were first hearing of Starbucks, being sent by a group of friends with this "grande" "Latte" and whatever-ey words I was supposed to use. I stumbled a lot, the cashier lady was nice and helped me out. I still sweat going to Starbucks if I have to, and will say "the largest size" or "medium" and they usually look a little annoyed I am not speaking their language. It's embarrassingly ridiculous that their "hip" words and foo foo coffee has infiltrated our society. By the way, if I HAVE to go, for whatever reason, I will get a tea for like $2.50. it's not bad and not a liquid candy bar.
I'm not sure what it was, but I've never liked them - somehow always knew they were a liberal leftist marxist operation. And their coffee sucks.
Could it be the burnt beans ?
A few hundred years ago hauling coffee beans in the hole of a wooden ship meant a well burn't bean was safer to drink. Now they're just ruined.
Yeah, you could say they taste like they came out of a house fire
I can Happily say that I Have NEVER had a single beverage from Starbucks....😉😁👊
I can't, but I can say I've never liked it.
Between the burnt taste and the price, it had nothing going for it, but it provided caffeine in a pinch. Boycotted since they started making political statements.
Make my coffee at home for years now.
Same here
Give you an Amen in on the cold brew. It’s def worth a try. We discovered a roaster named Seth in Bisbee AZ (imagine a living ghost town in the desert mountains). Every month he sends 2 lbs of freshly roasted coffee. The origin of the coffee varies from month to month and includes a little back story on the originating coffee plantation. You can usually find Seth in his shop and he is quite the conversationalist. I’m not shilling, but I would give them a try if you want a superior cup. https://oldbisbeeroasters.com/. “A gentlemen is ready is to serve coffee on a moment’s notice.”
Nice. So I get coffee from Trader Joe's (Sumatra or Bolivian, whole bean), or from a chain store we have in the east called Fresh Market (they have Ethiopian Yirgacheffe), and even from Costco when I can find a good dark roast whole bean coffee there. Then I take said coffee beans to their in-store grinder and set it to FINE or ESPRESSO and mill it to an almost salt-crystal size. I find that the finer grind gives me a stronger coffee. I like coffee that is strong enough to invade Poland, if it wanted to.
The concentrate this grind makes is thick and dark, and I let it cold brew in my fridge for 24 to 48 hours. I tried drinking the concentrate once and it nearly took my head off....WOW! NOPE!! About an inch in a cup, topped off with filtered water, microwaved about 2 minutes, and I get the best cuppa that I've ever had anywhere.
Since I like coffee strong, my rule is that I should not see the bottom or sides of the cup, just black coffee.
My wife tells me that I have now spoiled her on coffee and that she simply cannot stand the swill they serve in restaurants or the various meetings she goes to. Same with me.
Instead of a microwave use an electric kettle to heat the water.
It heats way better.
Cool! I'll try that.
May its name and memory be blotted out, and its offices be given over to Patriot Grounds.

I have a view out my balcony door of the entrance a block away-it is astounding how many cars go in every day.. I just wish I had 10% of the money being poured into that hyped facade.
Imagine the carbon footprint of thousands of cars idling at Starbucks every morning… for decades. “Won’t somebody please think of the children?” /sarc/
"Good for me but not for thee" the prevelant thought pattern with all these self involved fools...
By working I assume they r adult? But I think free scholarship or tuition reimbursement would be better for them
As long as they don’t target kids
hey kid come here? are you 16 yet? you got a job? i tell you what. you get a job here, we will give you some money, AND pay to have your dick cut off by an actual surgeon. what do you say? is it a deal?
Its ok, they'll hire kids that identify as adults :)
There is a Starbucks in a Target in my town. Imagine getting a twofer because they think I want to shop at either place, not! Who want's to spend $7 for a cup of coffee? I hate coffee, disdain Starbucks, and wouldn't piss on that company even if it was burning down to the ground. Screw leftist organizations that want to subvert the will of God. They can live in their decisions and hopefully walk a sidewalk looking for a beggars mite whenever that corporation goes bankrupt.
oh i just have to go to Target to get my rainbow colored tuck-friendly swim-wear for my 5 year old.
Never had SB, never will.
Well played.
This can't be real
$7 cup of coffee going to $25.
Starbucks main ingredient in their coffee has to be SOY. NOBODY can drink that crap unless it is loaded with cream and sugar. Gimme my Maxwell House in a cup, hot and black---no additives! One Question---why is this guy buying that crap!
They do use milk, but the sugared drinks are a half a day to a day's worth of calories on their own.
Starbucks, put the ridiculous in coffee. When it only needs some caffeine, or maybe a good decaf,
!!!
Starbucks coffee is over-roasted crap. I’ve had exactly one cup of it, years ago. It tasted like burned rubber. It’s a hard pass for me.
its easy to burn coffee, with an old-school coffee pot.
this is why k-cups are such a hit. a quick, fresh brew, with no leftovers in the pot.
It's even easier when the coffee beans are roasted for too long (extra dark roast).
Found this article and apparently they've added a blonde roast and Ethiopian variety (light roast and medium roast, respectively). If I am ever in a situation where they're my only option, I'd go with Ethiopian, I think. But pretty sure I'll never drink it again.

Someone post the link of that ‘scan me’.
I want to verify this insanity.
If you knew what the profit margin is on Starbucks products...

I have a 45 mile commute. There are a couple of convenience type places near where I get on the interstate. They sell the bean to cup stuff that grinds and brews each individual cup, 24 oz for .99. On top of that, the only other people in there, especially at 4:00 am, are all right minded working people. I’m not a coffee snob. I like it fresh and hot. This stuff is better than SB at 1/4 the price.
I never had a starbucks product or a bud light, so i guess that'll continue.
At $10 a cup of milk with a shot of burnt coffee, they can definitely pay for 10% of their employees to get it.
This move is to ensure DEI investment as well, no doubt.
Never underestimate Evil....
