1. 4-shot venti non-fat latte
people don't understand 'quad' where i normally get them, so i have to dumb it down to 4-shot

then they stare at me open-mouthed until i say 'yes, 4 shots'

5. Ah yes, I remember your proclivity for dangerous caffeine dosage
:D The baristas at the SB in my grocery store are actually pretty savvy. They fixed one of my friends what amounted to a solid bar of caramel without blinking. :hi:

27. Um, er, ah, NO!
Nothing compares to your raktajino, but they don't serve it at Starbucks, and I didn't want to bother you, and the s.o. wanted coffee cake to go with, and I was out running errands anyway, and I had a balance on my gift card, and...

AAAAAAAIIIIEEEE!!!! WHY OH WHY are you persecuting me?????

45. You *would* ask me that the day after they discontinue Chantico


As fond as I am of all things chocolate, and european-style chocolate in particular, I never got into Chantico. It made my pancreas do backflips. :D

46. THEY WHAT?????
Sigh.


I suppose it was too good to be true. Also 380 calories a shot. Adding it to a venti nonfat latte with two shots of espresso does not equal health food.

I'm sad though. Now I have to think of some other way make Starbucks coffee drinkable.

49. I just found out myself
Edited on Sat Feb-11-06 11:40 PM by kedrys
Apparently, customers were miffed that they couldn't order weird variations of Chantico, the way they can customize their coffee drinks.

http://today.reuters.com/business/newsArticle.aspx?type=ousiv&storyID=2006-02-10T180149Z_01_N10296724_RTRIDST_0_BUSINESSPRO-LEISURE-STARBUCKS-CHANTICO-DC.XML

The only reason I started drinking coffee at all was the advent of the frap. If it's not sweet and loaded with chocolate, I can't drink it. It's way too bitter.

Oh wait--Starbuck's doesn't make any coffee like that! (Unless you water it down with loads of milk and sweeteners.)}(
