Starbucks, the world's largest chain of coffee shops, has unveiled a new logo which it says indicates its intention to move beyond its core product.

As to the resources needed to do this, I suspect they dropped

big bucks.

Surprisingly, I've never been to Starbucks, even though there are a lot around Puerto Rico (there's even one next to my neighbohood).

You're welcome.

Seriously though, are there even Starbucks anywhere in Europe?

There are a few. Hell, back in highschool the "in" crowd would suggest hanging out at the local Starbucks every now and then despite the fact that there are cafés at practically every street and they don't serve overpriced s***. The "out" crowd consisting of a few friends and myself would hangout by the Seine laughing at their idiocy.

Starbucks is bull.

You spend 4 bucks on something that you can make yourself for 10 cents.

Wait they're dropping the whole name ?

Why not keep "Starbucks" since the name is well known?

No, they're just taking the name out of the logo.


Ahh okay

I guess I can hope for some awesome ice cream or something from them
