Does Starbucks still have those really stupid names for coffee?!


Question: Does Starbucks still have those really stupid names for coffee!?
I mean "venti grande chai latté" and all that nonsense!. All that fake-foreigner talk!. I won't go inside to look around, I'm just curious!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Here's an answer without any stupid comments, yes they do!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

you sound cool!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Of course they do!. If you don't like it then don't bother buying it!.

Mocha -- a fancy term for hot chocolate with espresso!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Wow!.!.!.another uncultured person!.
Go to other coffee shops and you will find many of the same terms: espresso, mochas, lattes, macchatos!.!.!.they are all there!. starbucks didn't make up most of those terms as they are true coffee terms!.

If you want to speak "american," how about you go grab a cup of nasty coffee at mcdonald's!? you deserve a cup of coffee that is as uncultured as you!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes!. Odd thing to be curious or upset about!. I think it's a bit of an affectation myself, but apparently the owner of the company wanted to pay tribute to Italy by giving the drink sizes Italian-esque names!. (venti, grande!.!.!.) The other names are what the drinks are and are Italian - just as they have been for years around the world!. Should they call a cappuccino something different!? Why!?

Starbucks isn't a bad company by the way!. They have very ethical and green business practises, pay their people well and offer healthcare!. Popular doesn't always equal bad or greedy!. I wish other companies would follow their example!.

It's just coffee, it doesn't require that you take a stand - go inside one!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

"Venti" and "Grande" are sizes of drinks at Starbucks
Venti-the largest size drink
Grande-the middle size drink
Tall-the smallest size
&
Short-the kids size or smallest size in other countries than the US
Its not only Starbucks that uses the term "latte" its any coffee shop that sells espresso-unfortunately these terms might be alien talk to the lazy being that supports the dollar menu at Mcdonalds!.
Give it a try when you want to splurge
Nothing in live is "stupid" have a positive attitude

If your willing to spend 3,4 bucks on a drink then start off with a green tea latte or a chai tea latte <these are hot drinks
If you want a cold drink get a "grande green tea frappuccino"Www@FoodAQ@Com
