Did you all hear that Starbucks is now going to offer smoothies.  I guess they need to do something new, because they’re losing customers fast.  Did you know that McDonald’s coffee beat out Starbucks in a 2007 taste test, which was conducted by Consumer Reports?  That’s right, McDonald’s has better coffee than Starbucks.  And I would have to say I agree.  I have been saying for years that Starbucks is so over rated.  I never really cared for there coffee.  Anyway, Starbucks is trying to become like a Dunkin’ Donuts, but with much higher prices.  I think I’m going to stay with my pot of coffee at home.
