1. The Chairman and CEO of STARBUCKS, Howard Schultz, is an active Zionist. In 1998 he was honored by the Jerusalem Fund of Aish HaTorah with 'The Israel 50th Anniversary Friend of Zion Tribute Award' for his services to the Zionist state in 'playing a key role in promoting close alliance between the United States and Israel.' At a time when other businesses were desperately pulling out of Israel, Starbucks decided to help Israel's floundering economy and invest in Israel. It has been revealed that Starbucks still continues to support Israel by sponsoring fund raisers for Israel .

Garbage ass overpriced shyt

Luckily one of the things Louisville has going for it is a wealth of independent coffee shops all cranking out quality product and more accessible pricing.

Now I don't know about any fukking US, but in Europe a middle sized cup of Frappe costs €5.

And this is the average price for all their drinks. You can walk twenty meters and buy a huge ass Frappe for €1 and it tastes better.

How in their minds bytches and fakkits can rationalise paying €5 for something that costs 15 cents to make?

Starbucks coffee actually is stronger per unit than the average cup from your local spot. (Even in the dark roasts) Also, they charge more for using non GMO soy as well as many other things.

Most of all the Bucks is a lifestyle here in the states. People post up with their Caramel Machiatto's (the #1 THOT drink of the bucks) and pray to be seen.

I haven't been in a Starbucks in a minute so I forget what their pricing is like but I remember it being pretty bad.

The company I work for also owns a place that kinda specializes in coffee/beer/brunch-y food, and they brew coffee from that Intelligesta place in Chicago which I guess is a big deal to the coffee "snobs" in this area, and it's good coffee but even I'll say the prices are kind of lame. Especially since I've started drinking tea to save me from spending on my money on Red Bull and coldbrew coffee. at someone trying to make me pay $3 for a cup of bagged tea.

Most people I work with with go to Quills, although I forget the pricing I'm sure it's slightly better than the place I work near. Quills generally has absentminded white people working, but what else could you expect from a barista working in the Highlands.

Whenever I've had Highland Coffee it always tastes oddly bitter/burnt. It's not great but anything better than Heine Bros.

Cracked ran an article about this a while back.

Here's a serious question: What the hell has Starbucks ever done to you? Again, I'm seriously asking. Please post your answers in the comment section. I mean, I get it -- they're everywhere, and that's kind of obnoxious -- but there are twice as many Subway restaurants, right? How come no one gives a shyt about that? It's not like Starbucks is coming to town and putting all the competition out of business, like Walmart. Even in the smallest of towns, where there's a Starbucks, there's usually a mom-and-pop coffee shop that thrives on nothing more than the business from people who like to rebel against societal expectations about drinking corporate coffee.

Since we mentioned Walmart, remember all of the drama surrounding how impossible it used to be for their employees to get health care? Starbucks has been giving employees who work just 20 hours per week full health insurance benefits since 1988. No matter your stance on their coffee, it's hard to argue against treating your employees with at least a moderate amount of respect. That's a rarity in the fast food industry.

They have the gall to charge insane prices, sometimes as high as $5, for a single cup of coffee. Except that's not really true, is it, coffee fans? If you just order a cup of black coffee at Starbucks, contrary to popular belief, no one will look at you quizzically as if you've just placed the most exotic order ever, and it's not going to set you back a whole lot more than it would if you were shopping at Dunkin' Donuts.

If you're buying a slightly fancier blended coffee drink, no matter where you are, then you should expect to be in that five-dollar neighborhood. If I had to guess (and I do, because I hate research), I'd say the reason Starbucks earned the distinction of being the only franchise that gets shyt for selling the same overpriced coffee everyone else sells is because they were the first ones to make that particular product into a McDonald's-esque "one on every corner" type of experience.

Sure, Starbucks isn't the greatest coffee in the world, but that's a lot like saying Steel Reserve isn't the greatest beer in the world. What difference does it make if you drink enough of it to give yourself Type 2 diabetes like I totally did a few years ago?

It doesn't matter. At all. If you want coffee, you're going to get it from whatever place happens to be in the vicinity. If it's a Starbucks, you're going to find a reason to complain, because that's what we're supposed to do when a company becomes that huge, even if, at the end of the day, they aren't a whole lot worse than anyone else.

Empty out a cup of that with the mcdonalds mcfrappe and transfer it over to a Starbucks one...


... and tell me if that bytch can taste the difference.


.

If they're like me, they'll be able to tell the difference with a frappuccino and Mcfrappe.
The Mcfrappe is sweeter and stronger.
The caramel frapp is sweet (like a natural sugar sweetener), but the Mcfrappe is sweeter (like a high fructose corn syrup sweetener).

For anyone here that drinks Starbucks a lot, get a gift card. If you register the gift card, everytime you use it, you'll get a star. When you get to 30 stars, you start getting coupons for 59% off, and free drinks. Once you get to 30 stars, you get a gold gift card, with your name on it, mailed to you.
