Guest guest Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 Well I dont get normal house brew I get the biggest fancy schmancy snooby snooty mocha-laden with fake whipped cream coffee they have. Even at $1.50 a cup, imagine how many more servings you get from that can of $9 folgers. I buy organic free-trade coffee in bulk, it's $8/lb for reg and $9/lb for decaf. Starbucks brand is around $8/lb at the grocery store I go to. meg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 Years ago starbucks has a smaller size and it was that, the tall and the grande. They did away with that as we americans are piggies and now it's tall (medium), grande (large) and venti (Xlarge).

Guest guest Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 Yes we are. Have you seen the sizes of drinks at a movie theater? Can you imagine the calories of the largest size being a regular coke! That and those humongous muffins. How many servings is that anyway?

Guest guest Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 On the size of drinks...the pretzel place at our mall has what I refer to as a bucket of soda...it's HUGE. Well over a liter of drink can go in it. --- Reed Deborah <debjreed wrote: > Yes we are. Have you seen the sizes of drinks at a > movie theater?

Guest guest Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 There is some organization that publishes studies on food in the US. They found that movie popcorn had more fat than any regular foods at fast food places. I don't know if they checked Burger King( I think). They have something with double meat, bacon and cheese plus mayonaise, bun etc. GB , Reed Deborah <debjreed wrote: > > Yes we are. Have you seen the sizes of drinks at a > movie theater?
