From there, the organization plans to pressure the company to stop “charging up to 80 cents extra for vegan milk.”

So when did they start milking vegans? The equipment is not very expensive, but most vegan women do not look like they would be very good producers compared to a cow or even a goat and I am sure that they are a lot more difficult to take care of.

It’s probably futile, but I hope Starbucks does not cave on this.

At what point does it need to be said that they are running a BUSINESS...and if a commodity costs them more, it will of necessity cost the customer more.

They need to make payroll!

So charging extra for “environmentally friendly” decisions is bad when it’s your latte.

But stealing from my Family, to pay for our “carbon footprint” or whatever b.s. they conjure is the bee’s knees?

“nut juice” . . . Thank you for pointing that out. Can we please stop calling it soy milk, rice milk, and almond milk? It is not milk. When was the last time anyone saw an almond with a teat or a soybean with an udder? Soy juice, almond juice, or rice liquid, but not milk.”””

I was riding horseback with a neighbor some years back when she said she had changed her diet significantly & now was using only Almond milk.

I told her I was raised on a Wisconsin dairy farm & milking cows was a big enough job—especially when the power went out. I couldn’t begin to imagine how hard it must be to ‘milk an almond’.
She almost fell off her horse laughing.

Is Starbucks that awful coffee company that makes the poor little donkey carry those heavy sacks of coffee down the mountain?

‘Everyone should be intolerant of cruelty'

No honest, benevolent person can disagree with that!

I’m upset that Starbucks charges for using vegan plant-based coffee grounds.

Never occurs to them to start their own ‘Vegan-Friendly’ Coffee business.

“I cook with olive milk.”

Don’t even get me started on tomato gravy. People need to stop calling it ketchup.

I cook with olive milk.

I don't even know what that is. I put olives on pizza. I spent some considerable time hiking in the olive groves in Tunisia and thought I had seen olives in every imaginable form, from food to fuel, but never olive milk.
