[lbo-talk] Liza on coffee

Liza with a Z writes: >Delicious coffee has become mainstream over the
past decade. That's a positive legacy of companies like Starbucks, and
you can't beat them by selling crap.<

Starf*cks burns their beans in order to increase the caffeine content
-- and then uses milk to cover the resulting bitterness. Peets or
Coffee Bean would be a better example here. Otherwise, I agree with
Liza's blogentry.
