"See, this is how an americana should taste."

This was a regular occurrence almost every other day when I worked at Caribou Coffee.

This is literally how American coffee culture works.

Make Folger's in a Mr. Coffee or whatever equivalent you have around. Divide the coffee between two cups. Take them to someone who is super serious about going to Starbucks or whatever coffee shop. Tell them one cup is from their coffee shop and the other is Folger's. Try not to laugh as they tell you in detail how easy it is for them to tell the difference and how much better the coffee from their shop tastes.

I don't get driving to a Starbuck, parking your car, walking into the store, waiting in line, and then spending $5 on a cup of coffee that has like 30 grams of sugar.

in large cities where you walk everywhere, driving is impossible, and it’s like living in a dehumanizing concrete canyon, starbucks is a godsend where you can sit still for like 10 minutes and drink a coffee and there’s always a bathroom.

The fact that it costs a few dollars and everything is brightly colored makes it feels like you’re treating yourself.
