Starbucks introduced a 31oz iced coffee named the "Trenta".
I don't like Starbucks. I don't care for their fancy-ass pseudo-Italian names and the obvious fact that they amp up the prices of coffee because of that. In my unhumble opinion, their swill is no better than that from a doughnut shop. Starbucks makes coffee for people who, at least some of them, wouldn't be caught dead walking into a doughnut shop.

I've drank coffee from Starbucks twice. The coffee was bitter and nasty. Truck stop coffee is better. (Actually, modern-day truck stops have darn good coffee, the days of the giant vats of stale coffee are long gone). I thought the first time was maybe just an anomoly, that particular store. The second store was hundreds of miles away from the first store. Nope, still undrinkable swill.
I might be a bit of a coffee snob, I grind my own whole-bean coffee, but Starbucks coffee to me tastes no different from the stale Folgers you buy in a can. I might drink it again if you paid me $100 to do so. But I certainly won't pay for the privilige, that much is certain.

I don't like their plain coffee, but it's pretty good all fluffed up with chocolate and whipped cream. Definitely not worth the price or the hype.
