First of all, before anyone gets excited, I get coffee from starbucks extremely rarely. A couple times a year tops.
That being said, I am not a supporter of starbucks.
Ok, now, my main point- For everyone in here just saying the coffee tastes like shit, Try to be more productive towards the conversation. The coffee tastes bad, is an obvious fallacy, as nearly 40 MILLION people drink their coffee. If the coffee tastes like shit, then don’t order a oat milk vanilla pumpkin spice chai latte.
The conversation is around starbucks trying to bust up unions.
Saying- the coffee tastes like shit (when 40 million people drinks it), is not productive towards the conversation, and does nothing to assist with the conversation of starbucks being anti-human, anti-union, and treating their workers like slaves.
Their coffee tastes like shit and 40 million people have bad taste in coffee. The 2 can be true.
Taste is subjective! There can’t be bad taste, there can only be stuff you don’t like.
So don’t be an asshat and look down on other people for what they like.
Unions are great, honestly.
Instead of passively not going to Starbucks, actively support your local coffee shop instead as well. Their coffee are usually better and not burnt to a char anyways, plus, it’s not like pumpkin spice lattes are only at Starbucks.
Boycotts are funny. I can’t boycott something I don’t really buy. I only go when a customer wants it. Otherwise I don’t go because I don’t like their product. Their politics are secondary to my decision their coffee is crap.
I keep telling people their coffee is garbage, but you can’t tell with all the sweetener and flavors they add. An espresso or regular coffee at Starbucks? 🤮
lmao at the nerd that replied to this
A moka pot and some illy coffee tastes better than any Starbucks I’ve tried and it’s way cheaper.
i wish more places served moka, but they don’t.
Moka is just the type of coffee pot. It’s not really an espresso as it lacks the pressure but it’s the next best thing.
