Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
Nina Lalli from the Village Voice says that the flavored coffee
movement has, by and large, passed her by. One day she wakes up, smells the Starbucks Gingerbread Latte, and
wonders, "Am I the weird one? Is my "small coffee with milk—no sugar" a sign of my utter
party-pooperness?"
In a world where every coffee establishment competes to offer more and better, and more oddly-colored, Christmas blends, flavors and sweet additions, is it bah-Humbug-ism at its worst to pass all this by for a regular, ordinary coffee with milk?

My mother likes to say, "Coffee is a flavor, you know. Why can't coffee just be itself?"
I don't think it's bah-humbug unless you're one of those people who passes off your ability to drink coffee black as making you somehow superior to others. Then it's just annoying.

I do like pretty much any flavor latte, especially peppermint and pumpkin spice.
I always say if you can't eat something with a dip or sauce or topping, then you don't really like it. I guess I'm a hypocrite.

Starbucks). and I'll take my sugar/chocolate/almond/peppermint, etc in their orignal forms, ie. a gingerbread cookie, a peppermint stick, or a pumpkin pie. This is getting mighty close to drinking your cereal again, isn't it?
