    I guess I am an anomaly here. I enjoy one good strong cup of coffee in the morning, preferably a Starbucks triple shot grande latte and will switch from Bo’s to Starbucks when it opens, hopefully in my lifetime. I don’t spend money on beers which the cost offset works for me.

    An Army Infantry field grade officer said to drink black coffee....no latte, cappuccino, and other flavored coffee.

    He said...straight men...prefer coffee without added ingredients.

    This was 20 years ago...

    My wife loves their hot chocolate, Bo's comes in second place. She'll be happy, and isn't that what makes a good life? A happy wife.

    The best coffee I can drink is @my own place. Made from an high quality European brand. Starbucks, Bo's and what ever more names cannot even stand in the shadow., not to mention overpriced. But as always everybody has his own taste.

    I have never been to a Starbucks and not about to start now. I don't need a $5.00 cup of coffee.

    The Philippines had more Starbucks than any other country outside of the US at one time. I think they are down to 10th place now. I really don't get it, the cost in the Philippines is almost the same as in the US, and it is way overpriced in the US, not to mention their coffee is nasty.

    I can still remember the perking and enchanting aroma of coffee being made by my mother for my father.

    Starbucks and Bo’s cannot emulate that...
