I dislike coffee so I don't support Starbucks. There are only 2 in SW Missouri anyways (although they sell it in the store). I do occasionally drink a latte but that is once in a blue moon.

I'm a Dunkin Donut coffee kind of person - Starbucks doesn't agree with me. We serve Starbucks at work and at Christmas, I was given a pound of their coffee. It just didn't set right.

I don't care for starbucks, their coffee tastes like they intentionally burn the beans. If I am going to have a specialty coffee such as that, I usually find a Caribou Coffee. Most of the time I just make my own. I bought a grind & brew pot and I buy Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee to brew in it. Quite spendy, but worth every penny to me..lol

We buy the Starbucks French Roast and Decaf coffee at our supremarket. I've been to a couple of Starbucks stores as well and bought a specialty coffee or two.

No Starbucks in my locale...used to get an occasional Espresso or Capuccino at a place called Java Junction here in Roanoke Rapids but don't drink coffee all that much anymore.

Every now and then when I go to Barnes and Noble I'll get a Cafe Mocha to drink while I'm shopping. Very good stuff.
