NomNomYSK that real coffee is really good for you. Starbucks is not real coffee. It's trash.
Soook much misinformation… In no particular order:
- Starbucks is a brand, not any specific beverage or even type of drink. You sound like a boomer saying “a Nintendo”
- You don’t even try to give a reason for your arbitrary 11 AM cutoff time. Zero sources as well.
- YSK is for facts, not biased opinions.
- Almost every coffee shop that sells coffee also sells sweetened and frozen coffee drinks, with similar caloric/sugar content.
- Your own link clarifies that the right amount of coffee is good for you, an important distinction.
- Saying Starbucks is not coffee doesn’t make sense, but it’s also blatantly false. Their coffee-based drinks are obviously made with “real coffee” and it’s easily provable. Just like every other coffee shop.
- There’s no sources for what you say about tea.
- Saying a brand is trash is 100% opinion. Plenty of people don’t like them, but putting that in the post shows how your prejudiced opinion shouldn’t be listened to.
- There’s no source for the cherry-picked drink contents.
- Saying a brand is good or bad is (again) complete opinion, so a conclusion can’t be reached.
- Opinions aren’t facts. My opinion is your post is shit.
I agree with everything except for this part:
Almost every coffee shop that sells coffee also sells sweetened and frozen coffee drinks, with similar caloric/sugar content.
You wouldn’t find another coffee shop in my city that sells anything comparable to the sugar-milk-coffee drinks from Starbucks. An affogato or caffè freddo probably has less than half the amount of sugar. They have pastries that dissolve your enamel within three bites though.
But to reiterate, wrong community for this post.
