Don't worry Starbucks, I still love you even if the people at Which think you are shit. Their report 'Spilling the Beans' (ha ha) published today gives the SB a good thrashing. They are accused of selling unhealthy drinks which taste crap and cost toomuch. For example, a Mocha from Starbucks contains a frightening 396 calories and 12% fat, compared to an ordinary black coffee at 17kcal.
Luckily during my trip to London today I only had a skinny cappuccino with sugar free vanilla syrup. But Which goes on to say that not only are Starbucks coffees unhealthy, they also taste the worst compared to other brands.
Stings a little doesn't it.

We've never been fans of Starbucks so glad to see our favorite Nero's coming first. (Although they do need to give the Ipswich store a good cleaning!).
Starbucks themselves believe that the reason for their success is not their ghastly oversweet coffee but the "theatre" of its manufacture before your very eyes and the relationship between you and your barista.
Nah. It's a minimum wage slave making a coffee, usually with no time to engage you and poor social skills anyway. Theatre is something different.
I'm (quite literally) not buying it.
