i tried it, it tastes like foot bread......

Starbucks coffee is but a shell of it's former self, perhaps 5-10 years ago they had good coffee, but not now. But as a corporation, Starbucks is exceptionally forward thinking, community oriented, and globally concious.

It's cool that they've gotten as big as they are and still give back, but for people who really dig coffee, Starbucks probably isn't going to do it for you.

I think there's an ASOT Yearmix analogy in here somewhere...
