Only been in Starbucks once with a coworker. Had the hot chocolate and it sucked. We have convenient stores here called QuikTrip. Best hot chocolate ever!

Honestly am not able to recall the last I was in a Starbuck's and I have no reason to ever return.

Patrick Dempsey! I had to really think about that one.

Seattle's Best was my Seattle coffee go to for a while. Starbucks actually bought them and destroyed them from the inside. If I recall correctly the Lawyer Michael Avenati(SP?) and a TV star whose name I do not recall tried to buy Tully's out of bankruptcy. After succeeding in the bankruptcy proceedings the then failed miserably and were shut down.

Peet's Major Dickason's Blend is a pretty good, a dark flavorful brew without the all-too common bitterness of dark roast coffees:

I believe Peet's is in just a handful of states, though.

Only the best for the men and women in uniform, uh Mike LOL. I'm sure that MRE coffee was to die for, literally!

Brian, C-Rats much better than MREs. I would trade my cigarettes for Pound cake LOl!!

Oh you're old school, brother. No more C-Rats when I joined up. Some of old guys still had that key I guess that was used to open them up. I'd be all over that Pound cake!.

The Jimmie's Hippie Cookies are amazing. Probably been 10 years since I had one. This conversation may make me venture over to get one!

Well now you're just going to have to ship me a dozen

Thanks All. The new dog is already wearing me out but it's a sweetheart. I'm assuming scooter isn't housebroken however we have, so far, had a lucky day. No accidents yet.
