Who else hates the way all these new coffee joints serve bad coffee in a paper cup?
beck asked:
Why are they so popular? Gloria Jeans in particular seems to always serve bad coffee, with burnt milk but everyone loves it. I don’t get it. And why must they serve it in a paper cup even when you’re not taking-away? – it’s wasteful of paper, creating litter and is not as nice to drink out of. I just wanted to know if anybody else misses a good old proper solid coffee cup with a decent coffee in it instead of a paper cup with $#it coffee in it.
I live in Australia, Gloria Jeans is very much like Starbucks which are popping up everywhere here too… Grrr

yeah, this IS America ! …..and you DO have a choice. You can choose to go to a paper cup place or you can go to a porcelain cup place, or a good ol’ big, heavy ceramic MUG ‘O Joe place !

I don’t know Gloria Jeans, but I can’t stand Starbucks, they are so overrated, their coffee smells burnt and old. I like Tim Hortons that coffee is addictive and tastes so good, but yes then comes the paper cup, but if I stay I will have it in a cup.

I dislike perculated coffee and can’t get a cup of nescafe in town so I just drink tea. I know one place that pretends all their cups are in the wash, they serve in paper cups so they don’t have to do the dishes. And whats with the lack of milk thing – support dairy farmers give me real milk – lots of it. And 2 sugars please.
