Same here.
Doesn’t affect me. I make black rifle coffee, either at home or in the office

Hopefully maybe this is something that the media may pick up on.
Yup , Starbucks has a 'green agenda' which their customers like. But having disposable cups is more sanitary. What happens after the Coronavirus has run its course and they go back to reusable cups. What disease will be the next thing to stop using reusable cups? Paper cups can recycled. They are almost sterile when new. Some of our older members may remember the cloth endless roll dispensers in public restrooms to dry your hands. They are long gone replaced by paper disposable or air dryers which are more hygienic. I live in a blue state which has sorta banned plastic shopping bags. I wonder how often people clean or disinfect their reusable bags , I doubt they do it at all.

I bought tea from Starbucks about 13 years ago. Antigov, I find your not drinking coffee interesting. I don't drink coffee either. It makes my back lock up tight.

I drink coffee but the nasty strong stuff eats at my gut I stay away from it. Stopped at Starbucks once told them to add 1/2 water and still it was nasty it’s the kind of coffee that goes in the trash can on the way out the door after one sip.
Always thought a coffee truck with the name “Just a good old cup of Joe” would be popular today with the normal coffee drinkers.

I would never support Starbucks knowingly. They refused to donate coffee to the troops awhile back until everyone made a big fuss then they relented. Tells me all I need to know about that company.
"TruthOrFiction.com contacted Starbucks about the story. Starbucks says that the originator of the email, Sgt. Howard Wright, and talked with him about his complaint. He has now sent a follow-up email to his email list, which appears below. Starbucks assured him of their support of the military and that the only reason any coffee was not donated was because the official Starbucks donation policy authorizes such gifts to officially designated public charities, including libraries and schools, and that the U.S. military or military personnel do not qualify. It was not meant to be a comment on the war or the service of military personnel in the war. The company said that there have been employees that have showed their support through donations of coffee. Starbucks told us that many of the company’s employees (called “partners” by Starbucks) receive one pound of free coffee each week and some of that coffee has gone to members of the military or related organizations. For example, the employees in the Starbucks in Atascadero, California, decided to send their weekly free coffee to troops in Afghanistan and there are other such stories about Starbucks coffee finding its way into the hands of military personnel."
