Starbucks is dialing me in...should I worry?

I think that you can order pretty much any of their hot drinks with soy instead of milk.

This guy doesn't touch much soy if at all possible - there's some nasty scientific studies regarding soy and it's affect on...err...certain vital components and hormones in men. I do have a wee bit from time to time though, but since I'm really not much of a dairy/dairy substitute fan anyway, especially in my coffees, it's not an issue usually - besides, it masks the taste of my coffee! Coffees like a religion to me. I hate paying $5 for coffee, but I hate paying $2.50 for steamed milk even more.
Gotta admit though, you sure feel like you get more in a cappuccino or latte.

It's the cold pre-fab drinks that you need to stay away from. Starbucks coffee can be pretty strong. I like a rich cup of java, but I find that their mild blends are about as much as I can handle.

I tried one of those cold drinks once...I think it lasted 3 sips...worst thing I've ever tasted. IIRC there's a days worth of calories in them too. I can't believe how popular they are, sometimes I wonder if people just drink them to accessorize?

"friends don't let friends drink Starbucks".

Swishy swishing the pot again?
Actually, that's pretty funny - I would tend to agree with him if it can helped. Unfortunately, I often find myself faced with the reality that bad coffee is better than no coffee.

I'm with you brother. Unless you're getting some kind of fancy steamed drink, the only way to drink coffee is black.

Um, wasn't this threat supposed to be about the music at Starbucks?

Sorry. My bad.

You're right...I meant to say "I'm really not much of a dairy/dairy substitute fan anyway, especially in my coffees, it's not an issue usually - besides, it masks the taste of my coffee! Coffees like a religion to me" when I'm listening to my new Eddie Vedder tune at Starbucks...

That's better.
