Starbucks Gold

Forums:

I'm not a Starbucks fan, but they are making a pretty good case for me to start supporting them.

 

And really: How many times do they have to answer to wrongful accusations and calls to boycott them?

 

I'm not sure if this is funny or pathetic (See Scott Baio's weak sauce tweet near the bottom).

 

Shame...

Starbucks makes a pretty decent latte. Definitely worth a swing through the drivethru in a pinch.

can't find their mocha frapacino ice cream any more and it really pisses me off

What other Coffees do you folks drink? Any great on-line places to get great Ground Java?

I just switched to Peet's "Big Bang" and I'm happy as a clam.

 

Their French Roast whole bean is quite satisfying.

 

Who's boycotting, the so called 38%.  hahahahahaaa, fk them.

Starbucks drive-through for the win!

I still can't kick my Major Dickason's habit.  "Best in the Land"

 

May try the Big Bang, though.

If Big Bang is darker than Dickasons i'd give it a try..

I must confess that I use the Major Dickason's Blend at home in the Keurig.  Starbucks on the road, though!

Peet's big bang is great, just brewed some this morning-i buy whole bean and grind it fresh every morning

I roast my own beans, individually one at a time with my dab torch.  It's time consuming but well worth it.

I thought starucks was on the same page as monsanto, and didn't like gmo labels. My apologies if this is untrue.

Not sure. But I accidently got shipped Peet's House Blend and that was a darker roast and color from their Big Bang. (Good stuff too)

Good point, MoMo:

Peet's was also under a cloud when it was purchased by a German firm, but I can't remember what was so bad (some Nazi thing?).

Interesting links, Johnny D. Thanks.

Big Bang is good. it's either Major Dick's or that. for a while we were getting Batdorf & Bronson's Dancing Goat, but after drinking it for sometime the flavor seemed 'soft'.
