I love Starbucks. I've loved their coffee since we started buying it at Sam's clubs in CA in the early 90's. It just tastes better to me than all other coffees I've tried. We're between coffee machines right now so we've been getting them right from the shop lately. I wish I had a venti decaf soy latte right now...

That is so majorly not coffee that I can't find words to adequately express my distress! EEEEEEEEAUW. And you're the woman who convinced her husband that microwaves were evil incarnate?

I like Starbucks java chip ice cream; I think the cream balances the overroasted Starbucks taste and everything works out.

On coffee itself, I'd be a snob if I liked it enough and could stand the side effects (no, not the caffeine. The coffee odor coming from every pore, and not just pores). I like Bucks County's regular blend, and some of the Whole Foods Markets blends, but if it's from a can keep it away.

Yeah, yeah, I know... try making a decent cup of coffee with soy milk though - it's just not possible. A latte is... dessert. Plus I don't have to stand there at the couter dicking around with cream and sugar for a half an hour...
