Why do you drink Starbucks?

[KathyV]

I don't like Starbucks because it is strong, bitter, and expensive, we prefer Dunkin Donuts coffee. I think Starbucks is really in the business of selling milk because I can't tolerate their brews without adding a lot of milk!

I was in Honolulu earlier this year and I noticed that although Starbucks was available, their weren't nearly as many shops as I am used to seeing in Chicago. The local Kona coffee is king in Hawaii and you will see it being sold everywhere. It is also strong but I liked it better than Starbucks.

I travel extensively for work and I can pretty much expect get the same cup of coffee no matter where I am in the world. I only drink the Pike Place regular coffee.

I only drink it when I'm traveling. Like someone said, it's consistent (mediocre), and I can use my phone app to order ahead and pay. After a few orders I get a free one, and give my husband a 5000 calorie frappa-coffeemilkshake.

When I traveled through NZ, they have a great coffee culture, and I loved the flat whites. Even a tiny village will probably have a couple of good cafes. I stopped at a gas station in the middle of nowhere for what I assumed would be coffee from a bad automatic coffee machine to hold me over until I could find a cafe. When the clerk started actually grinding the beans for my coffee I almost cried...

Don't y'all hate the smell of your urine after drinking coffee??? I'll drink a cup every now and then, and make sure I'm in a well-ventilated bathroom when I have to whiz. I went into a bathroom, a fairly clean one at that, in a Home Depot this past week, and the coffee in the urine smell coming from the stalls next to me was nauseating. First rule of taking a whiz next to a coffee drinker? HOLD YOUR BREATH!!!

Not finding a Tim's is a difficult endeavor....
