Re: Costa v/s Starbucks ..

I used to be a starbucks fan, but costa seems to be everywhere I normally am, so have to go there, although I agree it is boring!
If I had a choice, starbucks all the way, although I love a cafe nero Milano too.

I only like drinking hot chocolate from Costa. But strangely I can’t drink the hot chocolate from Starbucks because its too filling and heavy!!

Otherwise its Starbucks for me all the way for all the other hot drinks and I love their summer smoothies!

My morning Starbux drink: tall double shot on ice...its cold, strong and just jolts you awake in no time!

For hot coffee, Dunkin Donuts! Black, two sugars. Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Re: Costa v/s Starbucks ..

The chairman of Starbucks is a hardcore Zionist and pours massive amounts of money into Israel and it’s Armed Forces.

Soo to be fair I prefer my coffee and hot chocolate without the after taste of Palestinian blood, I love independent coffee shops always the best and cheaper or Cafe Nero if i’m pushed.

Re: Costa v/s Starbucks ..

I know about that, in fact I have a couple of friends who avoid Starbucks for that very reason. Personally, I don’t feel boycotting achieves anything and I sort of have a weakness for frapppucinos. If I do drink Starbucks it does not mean I have directly contributed to Palestinian misery. Israel gets a lot of aid from the US and I could argue that the same goes for an American Pakistani taxpayer.

Nooo! You have the freedom of choice in what you consume but you have no such freedom in taxpaying(another topic). A lot of Muslims wouldn’t open their fast with an Israeli date but would go to Starbucks? which is non-sensical…

And it does work, supermarkets in the UK have cut the amount of fresh produce the buy from Israel, or have had to find alternative ways to market it! Anti-Israel Economic Boycotts Are Gaining Speed - Haaretz Com
