   If I were on death row and had to choose my final thing to consume   
    before being led out to the firing squad, it would be a cup of   
    coffee with cream.  Yum.   
      
      
   Of course if they told me they only had Starbucks, I'd just skip   
    it and go end it all.  I remember when Starbucks was something   
    special. Now it's commodified - practically fast food - and the   
    staff is minimum wage garbage.  Pumpkin Spice Latte - what a   
    laugh.  (What a million dollar food product)
