Some folks think it means Starbucks is good. NOPE.

Starbucks isn’t coffee. It’s actually trash:

Real coffee is this:

Also:

  • Tea is also great and healthy. Tea is not addictive.

  • If you drink coffee, avoid it after 11:AM. Seriously.

        Go sit at a Starbucks with your “just a plain, regular coffee, none of this Frappuccino half-caff double-whip soy latte crap” order. You’ll see plenty of men grabbing the same coffee milkshakes as women. They’re all attracted to it the same way they’re all attracted to milkshakes: for being a tasty drink. The only difference is some men are embarrassed to admit it’s fine to enjoy a Frappuccino. Or a sweet cocktail, for that mater. And yet, if you make a sweet, fruity, caffeine drink but put it in a scary container, suddenly it’s manly to drink Monster, right?

        It’s really not that complicated.

      You won’t like Vietnamese coffee then. I’m open to it, but in very small amounts. It’s very sweet and they add lots of condensed milk. In the end, it doesn’t really resemble coffee that much.

      Dude if you can try Colombian coffee, don’t need no gourmet just buy what you can find. I love sello Rojo, it’s less strong than pilão but has more taste.

      As for American coffee, the things I tried when travelling didn’t taste like coffee at all. Everywhere I go that has this American style coffee capsules I have to put 2 expressos to even find the coffee smell, and that’s from a Brazilian that thinks pilão is strong.

        Capsules?

        You mean that stupid machine with the pods? Yea, fuck that, its not good. And its expensive per serving.

        Even plain drip coffee is better than that crap if you buy good coffee.
