Yes, I will drink Starbucks if there is absolutely nothing else. But only if I need caffeine, and only with that cream, sugar, and hazelnut. The cinnamon dolce lattes are pretty good, actually-- but it's kind of sad that you need to dump a lot of flavoring in your coffee. You should be able to drink it straight, without doctoring it up.

Coffee that is not from Starbucks . . . or as my dad calls it, Charbucks. That stuff is burnt and needs cream, sugar, and a shot of hazelnut syrup to make it drinkable. I'll take Green Mountain, Seattle's Best, the coffee at Panera, or any of the good little coffee shops around here over Starbucks.

Hmmmmmmm. I'm not so sure about this. I kind of like Starbucks! :)
ReplyDeletewhere do you get Seattle's Best? Darrenkamp's stopped selling it.
ReplyDeleteI don't buy it to make at home-- we get Green Mountain for that. But I like Seattle's Best at the mall or Border's. :)
ReplyDeleteAhh the masses who have been seduced into enjoying the char of Starbucks as opposed to the reality of a full flavored coffee. I believe that starbucks has been a very successful marketing campaign. As Mr Bueche would say, "a cup of joe" (maxwell house) is better! Don't get me started on the overinflated cost!!!!!
