I never have cared much for Starbucks. You do know that Starbucks owns Seattle's Best coffee.

[shattered]

Their regular coffee tastes like tar.. but their mocha's and such are good.

[Mr. P]

Interesting...Consumer reports just did a test on coffee and DID recommend McDs over the rest in the end. They tested Starbucks, Dunkin, Burger King and McDs.

I prefer Dunkin myself.

Owns? Or pwns?

[5stringJeff]

And for the record, I'll take any of them.

[jackass]

Dunkin's is WAY better than McD's! Its not even in the same class! Regular coffee that is. I dont know about the iced versions.

Why drink cofee at all?

[MtnBiker]

Because it is good. Hot,black and bitter. :D :coffee:

Why drink cofee at all?

Cause it tastes good, and it's a practically zero calorie wake-up. Much better than sugary cereals or donuts to get you moving in the morning.

The only thing that I don't like about coffee is the after jitters that I get.

I'll go way up for a couple hours and then crash...

Uhh.. cause they ARE from WA...

Starbucks was founded in Seattle, Washington, in 1971 as a local coffee bean roaster and retailer called Starbucks Coffee, Tea and Spices. Howard Schultz joined the company in 1982 and was inspired on a trip to Italy to develop a similar espresso bar and coffeehouse culture in the United States. To advance the concept, he founded the company Il Giornale three years later. In 1987, Schultz purchased Starbucks, merged it with Il Giornale, and renamed the company Starbucks Corporation. Starting with 17 stores, Starbucks has experienced a rapid expansion that began in the 1990s and continues into the 2000s. It has achieved similar growth in foreign markets; the first international location was established in 1996 and now they comprise almost one third of Starbucks' stores.

Yeah.. MCD's serves up "Seattle's Best Coffee" - the brand my wife have preferred for years over "Charbucks" - it's a more smoother cup of coffee yet still bold flavors...

Seattle's Best Coffee is a specialty coffee retailer and wholesaler based in Seattle, Washington, USA. It became part of Starbucks Corporation on July 14, 2003. Its international division is owned by FOCUS Brands, Inc.

Founded by Jim Stewart in 1968 as the "Wet Whisker", an ice cream and coffee shop in Coupeville, Washington, Seattle's Best Coffee was known as Stewart Brothers Coffee from 1969 to 1991, when it took its present name.

The ingredient list had a caffine caution, it might give you the same jitters as coffee.

That was just my reaction! While I had coffee out while in high school, the big drinking started in college. There was no way to pull an all nighter without it. It's also when I switched to drinking it black. ;)

I like my Stanley Stainless steel, I've had it for 30+ years. That's a classic. May be worth money some day on ebay. My wife had a disney Thermos as a kid that some guy bought from us at a garage sale for a dime then later bragged that he sold it for 20 bucks.

I use a Thermos stainless that has a plastic outer shell that seems to insulate the steel outer jacket, plus the shape prevents it from rolling around.

So do you do the energy drink thing? Rock Star, Blow Your Head Off, etc.? :D

I like coffee. Not too strong though. Home brew tastes good to me. Folgers Classic Roast made with filtered water through my Pur water filter, and heavy on the Coffeemate Original Creamer.
