If milk is rape, does that make this prostitution?
The question:

Is it fair/right for a customer to order what we, at my store, call a "ghetto-latte"?

The "ghetto-latte" is ordering any size Iced Americano, with no water and half ice (This lady's drink is an Iced Venti, no water, half ice, Americano). She then takes the drink and goes to the condiments bar and adds her own half and half.


Seems reasonably simple, right?

Not something you'd expect to cause, say, a three-month, several-hundred comment long flamewar which would eventually get heated enough that comments would be closed?

Apparently, none of us know Starbucks that well.

That's about what I figured.

So instead of that example- it'd be like McD's charging an extra dollar for the Supreme Ketchup Burger? Or Taco Bell charging $4 for their new Three Sauce Taco (Hot, Mild, and Medium)?

Damn- now I want Taco Bell.

Quadruple damn - that made me crave Taco Bell and I am all the way in Eastern Europe.

Do they have Taco Bell anywhere in Europe?

Don't give them ideas.

Next thing you know, we'll be seeing commercials for the new Pizza with Parmesan Cheese and Peppercorns at Pizza Hut for only $14.99.
