"Last year, a money-saving Starbucks “hack” that involves using an employee ID number on your receipt in an effort to scam discounts went viral, a trend that baristas said was practically “designed to get [them] fired.”" - Amy McCarthy
"Vianne once delivered a Starbucks order to one well-known celebrity. Starbucks has changed since mobile ordering, but at the time, 'you had to go in, order the drinks, pay, and then you wait for the drinks [to] deliver to the person. I was so upset because he didn’t give me a tip. What the hell, dude! Even if it’s just one dollar, give something. Don’t just not tip.'" - Saru Jayaraman
"The algorithm tends to bode well for big chains, like Din Tai Fung, Popeyes, Starbucks, and Dunkin’, many of which have their own accounts, but also ride on a wave of user-generated content." - Taylor Brandon
"Starbucks will be serving an apple crisp macchiato, made with apple and brown sugar flavors and topped with a caramelized apple drizzle, made with apple puree." - Jaya Saxena
"Starbucks is a chain that is good at engineering sustenance that fits snugly in the “good enough category of food — from egg bites to those butterhorns that are no longer sold but should come back. But how about a bowl? Bowls are trendy so natch’ the Siren had to get a cut of that market. Thus it debuted the chicken quinoa protein bowl two years ago. While admittedly appealing, as some Starbucks employees pointed out on Reddit, it’s essentially just the old Starbucks salad stuffed into a slightly larger, rounder package making it both less efficient and not really a bowl. It would certainly be a decent lunch option in a pinch, though some suggest cutting back on the very salty dressing. Nice try Starbucks, but you can’t trick me into buying this." - Madeleine Davies
