As the title states! For years I've enjoyed my cold Starbucks frappunchinos however once I start sucking on the whipped cream I find a weird film of it stuck to the roof of my mouth. Other coffee shops use different whipped cream which doesnt do this to me. Is this just a Georgia thing or what? O_o

Yeah back when I worked in a Coffee shop we had people come in all the time and like our stuff better than "Charbucks". I personalyl enjoy their frappachinos but i'll agree with ya on the wierd film thingy... It has to be their form of mind control :whitersx:....
But i'm with ya on the real men drink espresso / black coffee.

I've only stepped foot in a starbucks twice, once to get out of the rain and another time when my friend went in to buy some pastry of some sort. I've never put a nickel toward starbucks, or any other weird coffee shop, actually.

Some weird Canadian restaurant that is, apparently, everywhere up there...very much like Starbucks here. Just take any Starbucks joke, replace Starbucks with Tim Horton's, and it'll be funny to canucks.

I used to drink starbucks with a co-worker that has since moved away. I'm not a huge coffee drinker so I had no idea what to get so he would recommend me stuff. I was mostly hooked on those Mochas. Then he suggested I try a macchiato which tasted great, then he informs me it's a girly drink. Bah! I drink what I like girly or not.
Never noticed the whipped cream suckage, too busy burning my mouth on the overly hot beverage.

Seattle is Starbuck's first home. Portland (Oregon) is it's 2nd home.
