Just realize: They call coffee, but unless I order black coffee, anything else feel like milkshake.
And those milkshake are so much sugar with flavor, that make me addict to like tobacco.
I better quit starbuck and save some cash.
If you only drink water for a few weeks you’ll notice all the hidden sugar and substitutes in your food and beverages. Notice it for what it is, a cheap replacement to flavor.
wdym? i notice them either way. i consume them because i want to taste them. like when i want to taste phosphoric acid and caffeine, i drink coke. if the taste didn’t matter, i wouldn’t go through the hassle of getting them and just drink tap water and eat plain toast or rice
It’s a lot more obvious if you’re not consuming foods and beverages with added sugar. If you go long enough, sodas taste disgustingly sweet.
Not at Starbucks. I mean, you can customize your order and ask them to tone it down on the additives, but if you just order off their menu, you either get a black coffee or (I like how OP said it) a milkshake.
I don’t see how that has any relevance to my comment.
It doesn’t. I was trying to reply to someone else who was saying there was more than the two extremes of drinks.
Fair enough!
Not for me. I only consume coke every once in a while. I sometimes go for months drinking only water, black coffee and the occasional beer, yet I still enjoy Coke.
I agree that Starbucks isn’t the best for you but there’s a wide range of drinks between black coffee and milkshake.
Why go to Starbucks when my milkshakes bring all the boys to the yard? They’re better than yours.
Sugar is addicting, wow very original thought.
Because sugar is high energy. Brain always crave for high energy food. It is instinct
Yes, i am making fun of you. It is well known that sugar is
- addicting
- bad for you
- pushed by the Food industry
Why mock them? Our quotidian musings are seldom unique. When an individual arrives at a realization on their own, should we not celebrate it? Is it not our collective duty to foster and encourage critical thinking whenever the opportunity arises?
Yeah, but I’m an asshole…
I always feeling like a weirdo when just ordered a small coffee. Pro-tip: it’s better getting coffee at a bakery because their danishes didn’t come from plastic bags.
Starbucks has bad coffee. Change my mind.
Just a side note you probably shouldn’t be consuming foods and drinks that are high in sugar such as milkshakes, sodas and cakes. However, I think you are probably aware of that.
Coffee itself is addictive though.
But coffee itself in reasonable doses have little negative effects. Very much like how nicotine itself has little negative effects but the millions of carcinogens that come along in the smoke are like the cream and sugar in the Starbucks.
I … uhh … (what did they say?) Yeah, quitting Starbucks sounds like a good idea!
It’s funny comparing tobacco to an actual addictive stimulant, coffee, and decided sugar is the problem. I say as I drink my black coffee in the morning.
Whatever it takes to get you away from Starbucks seems like a win though.
I’m assuming you’re a battlestar fan?
Haha, yeah. I guess that’s ironic that I’m taking a stance against Starbucks with a username like this.
Sugar is an extremely addictive substance.
Granted, caffeine is as well, but sugar is more commonplace.
It activates the same areas of your brain as cocaine.
