Starbucks looses taste test to McDonalds

Coffee taste test stirs hot debate

In the coffee smackdown, it was yuppie Starbucks versus Ronald McDonald.

And the clown won.

Consumer Reports magazine said Friday that its tasters found McDonald's coffee to be "decent and moderately strong," with "no flaws," and that the Starbucks brew "was strong, but burnt and bitter enough to make your eyes water instead of open."

So let's see, how can we explain Starbucks' success??

1. Their coffee tastes like shit
2. Their practice is environmentally/socially UN-friendly
3. It is expensive
4. They play bad music
5. ???
