Thanks for the link. "Coffee that doesn't taste like coffee."

I thought the "starbucks roast" took care of that already. Go buy a rockstar if you just want the caffeine, oh and 50,000x your daily b-vitamins. Green coffee extract = pure caffeine, right??? I hear they will be selling the extract in powdered form as well and packaging them in their Via pouches only to be consumed with a rolled up dollar bill. -Justin On Aug 9, 2010, at 6:19 PM, Frank Parth wrote: <Snip> Homeroast mailing list Homeroasthttp://www.sweetmariascoffee.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemIdx20">http://host.sweetmariascoffee.com/mailman/listinfo/homeroast_lists.sweetmariascoffee.comHomeroast community pictures -upload yours!) :http://www.sweetmariascoffee.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemIdx20 |
...? So Starbucks sells something that *does* taste like coffee?

This is all so much BS. Starbucks is grabbing for their life. They will be around for a long time but this ploy of merchandising is simply so dumb!!! I would rather drink swill from a local yokel motel then Starbucks simply because it tastes like burnt wood sticks!! again I say hit your local 7/11 if you cannot find a brew. coffee is an art, thanks Chris! ginny On Mon, Aug 9, 2010 at 9:24 PM, Bryan Wray wrote: <Snip> Homeroast mailing list Homeroasthttp://www.sweetmariascoffee.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemIdx20">http://host.sweetmariascoffee.com/mailman/listinfo/homeroast_lists.sweetmariascoffee.comHomeroast community pictures -upload yours!) :http://www.sweetmariascoffee.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemIdx20 |
You like that huh? I saw that and thought to myself "What kind of marketing dork would attach that to ANY product associated with a company which makes its livelihood on COFFEE?" (Granted, I don't recall if the article actually said that it was Starbucks which coined the slogan but the thought did cross my mind). -- Ryan M.

That's because Starbucks stopped being interested in coffee, and became only interested in increasing shareholder value. --mike On Wed, Aug 11, 2010 at 12:01 AM, Ryan M. Ward |
