Starbucks. Helping fat people maintain their level of fatness with a caffeine twitch on the side.

Coffee wouldn't make people so fat if they didn't put so much sugar and cream in it. On its own, coffee is a dieretic. But cream is almost pure fat.

Too bad Starbucks coffee is so awful you basically have to put in sugar and cream in it.

Starbucks, like all coffee shops, has many different flavors. If you find all 20 of them bad, then I don't know what to say It could be you hate coffee in general, or have formed a bias against the starbucks brand.

I, myself, only like a few of them, but I'm not going to over generalize on their flavor. I don't touch any of the flavored junk, if that's what you're talking about.

Considering most people probably don't drink just straight coffee at Starbucks, they're ingesting massive amounts of calories. Mocha Latte with whipped cream and whole milk comes to around 450 calories for a Venti. Basically one meal.

on a srs note, I like drinking coffee black. I used to load it up with all sorts of sh*t: sugar, splenda, creamer, french vanilla, irish creme, etc.

When you take all the sh*t out of your coffee, you actually acquire the taste for coffee. Same thing with tea. It's made the whole experience better for me, but obv. that's a personal opinion.

Depends on the coffee one drinks. If I'm drinking the **** from a convenience store, I'll throw in the irish cream. If I'm at an actual coffee house, that may be a different story.

Actually, I like Wawa coffee, but yeah, some conv. store coffee is rat turds.

Pike Place Roast or whatever they call it is pretty good.

I actually think dunkin donuts has underrated coffee.

I love DD coffee, although I'm a fat man, so it doesn't count.

Anatoray · 01-17-2011, 08:18 PM

Single flavor brands are the where you'll find the most lovers and haters. I think DD has a decent blend for its only coffee offering. By contrast, I think McDonalds is horrid. Something about it just doesn't taste good to me no matter how I have it.
