Yes, They Are Splendid!

I am a big Starbucks fan because my office is situated smack in the middle of the Starbucks bermuda triangle. I can’t walk more then 15 meters in any direction out of my lobby without encountering a Starbucks.

So have you heard that they have a new Frappuccino® Light Blended Coffee? Oh you didn’t know? Were you off the planet the past week?

Q. What’s the difference between a Frappuccino® Light Blended Coffee and our original Frappuccino® Blended Coffee?

A. Frappuccino® Light is formulated with the same Starbucks Coffee as the original but with lower-fat milk ingredients, and is sweetened using a mix of sugar and non-nutritive sweeteners (like Splenda™). It has fewer calories and less fat.

And I confirm that they are splendid. They are da bomb for sucking on, after you have lunch. F87king A. Only 5 something bucks only. A lot cheaper then other poisons. Now you can have your caffeine without the guilt. Go try it out.

And please don’t email me about how Coffee Bean is better. Coffee Club Express is a lot better, but 10 bucks for a cup of Blue Mountain sounds like a rip-off to me. For your information, Spinellis is the best, but they are a long walk away from my office so I shall not elaborate.

Good grief, it’s midnight and I’m already craving for my next day’s dose of caffeine!

Starbuck’s is putting mindcontrolling and addictive drugs into their drinks. It’s just as much an effin’ conglomerate as McD’s.

At the rate you’re going, you might as well ask Starbucks to sponsor your blog already :)

PS: Support grassroot efforts! Lim kopi at your neighbourhood unbranded (i.e. non-S-11, non-Kopitiam, non-Makansutra) kopitiam today!

No, that’s olestra - the fake fat. Splenda is modified from real sugar.

if you were in Malaysia, I’d say San Francisco Coffee is WAAAAAAAAAAAAY better than Coffee Bean OR Starbucks. At least their coffee TASTES like coffee

hmmm yeah I know olestra has that, but i read somewhere that splenda too has a very small chance of that happeining as well, just a lot smaller then olestra. Dunno if true or not.
