And I am from the USA, so my responses should have even more sugar, plus the salt too (/s - though American foods are extremely heavily sugared and salty, that's just a fact!:-P).
Do you know then why the British make fun of Americans for liking coffee, rather than making fun of like Europeans for doing the same? It might be if USA coffee is "weaker" than e.g. French coffee - I could see that.
I've always heard that "overly sweet" (so, a higher degree of such than merely "sweetened") sushi is the mark of a non-authentic restaurant, probably in an attempt to cater to a more Americanized audience. And similarly for Chinese foods as well.
I don't know why all the milk though - possibly it's cheaper and they are trying to skim some profits for themselves.
Ngl, both of those places have their roles - like in an airport or while driving, I've definitely enjoyed both of 'em.
If you ever go to like a college town coffee house where they really put some EFFORT into making the coffee great - not some minimum-wage person just trying to make it through the day but I'm talkin' bout a fuckin' barista here - it may change & blow your mind:-).
But not every place sells fantastic coffee, especially on the cheap:-|.
An excellent counterargument. Fwiw I think he's two steps ahead of that though - the next step, as you indicated, is the other side to that story, but then the step after that is the question of what to do then? And to that, like Luigi himself, I must respond that I do not know. Either way it is sad to see what is going on, that it has come to this - regardless of whether the CEO himself deserved it or not.
I always used to think that way - until I got out in the world more and tried stuff until eventually I found stuff that I LOVED. You might have already tried and it just does not work for you, I'm just saying that there is a LOT of bad coffee out there masquerading as something that is worth paying even tiny amounts of money for:-).
It's hard to beat the freshest coffee - though I wonder how climate change is going to impact that, and it's always been difficult to attain "consistency" in single-origin material.
OMG that sounds AMAZING! Especially how the foam does not fully separate from the liquid as in a regular cappuccino or macchiato. I hope I get the opportunity to try one someday soon:-).
I dunno what you said prior to deleting your comment but if you were worried about (your instance) not being from the USA, I just wanted to say that I hoped you felt welcomed to discuss things here too:-). Fwiw I like to think of it more like "topics of interest to Americans" than "America ~~first~~ only".
Casey's cappuccino or whatever they call it is basically a shot of pure sugar & caffeine... so yeah me too:-).
THREE!? TIL... wow. So that does sound nice then, to spread out that same amount over the course of a day rather than concentrated all at once.
Yup.
Community for asking and answering any question related to the life, the people or anything related to the USA.
And your answer is related to topics that interest people in the USA!! ๐
I've always heard how Europeans like to talk about people in the USA who like their coffee. TIL otherwise - I guess Turkish coffee is a thing as well. Now I suppose there needs to be an AskEurope...?
I do that daily as well as coffee. I was thinking (more to help grow the community by giving it activity) to do a post on that as well today - but perhaps you'd like to beat me to it? ๐บ
