They shipped conexs full of Starbucks coffee to Iraq. We kept some boxes in the building I worked in the supply room. Besides the silver bulk espresso roast bags they’d send the seasonals during the holidays in 1 lb. bags.
For two years I made my auto-drip coffee with Starbucks espresso roast. No one else would drink it. They’d call it jet, fuel, etc.
It was greatly appreciated by the troops so give them credit.

They ship a lot of coffee to the troops. My wife worked at SB a few years ago, and was their primary charity and community person. We took hundreds of pounds to the troops passing through DFW on leave on several occasions. I give SB credit where it is due on that.
Wouldn’t it be great if everyone stopped at a Starbucks tomorrow, bought a cup of coffee, tea or a bottle of water and said THANK YOU to Starbucks staff and told them about their CEO’s wonderful act of charity and compassion for our troops?
Maybe it’s me, but wouldn’t it be great if that inspired other CEO’s to perform similar acts of charity and compassion?
Yeah, I know -— that’s the idyllic side of me coming out. Still, wouldn’t it be great?!
