Starbucks Fails (Again)

This is going to be a quick and simple post, becasue I need somewhere to rant about this new starbucks campain.

Starbucks has now come up with the idea that people are going to buy instant coffee from them. Scary thing is, they are right!

They have finally gone off the coffee deep end. Every little TINY bit of respect I was slowly gaining from starbucks has 

now just been flushged down the drain. 

First of all there is NO SUCH THING as a FRESH cup of instant coffee, I dont care how many words Starbucks throws in a Stupid internet commercial (http://www.starbucks.com/coffee/c17-instant-coffee.aspx) saying all kinds of technical words that they know regular Starbucks customers are going to belive and fall for…They are lying to you. It is just not possible. 

The only way to get a fresh cup of coffee is from FRESH GROUND BEANS. On location, and brewed right in from of you.

Now I know alot of people are not going to care, becasue they are not the coffee geek that I am, but what they need to think about is that this VIA instant brew is not cheep, and if you really want a fresh cup of coffee, your going to STILL save money by stopping by your local coffee house and getting one. One that has been hand mande and cared for. 

Starbucks has finally resorted to a plain and simple method of just wanting to make more money. MORE MONEY. 

They may tell 

you that they care about your cup of coffee, but if you buy this new instant brew, your only going to be instnaly flushing 

your money down the pooper on a poorly cared for fash, cup of muck.
