You’re shiite-ing me

[dayglored]

Well, there you have it... I knew their iced drinks tasted like sh*t, now we have proof they do!

[Jim from C-Town]

Because people, especially their workers, DON”T WASH THEIR HANDS!

[georgiegirl]

I always said Starbuck coffee tastes like crap.

[\/\/ayne]

[BenLurkin]

They have “gay” “baristas” in England?

[fwdude]

When you hire fags, that’s what happens.

[Hojczyk]

Cold brewed coffee the only way to go..

Great for iced coffee...not bitter

[PGR88]

At both Starbucks and Caffe Nero, three out of 10 samples tested contained the bacteria known as faecal coliforms.

Be careful of "fake news."

coliforms are a broad family of bacteria, and are found in animal feces, BUT are also found throughout the environment. They exist on the surface of nearly every fresh fruit and vegetable you purchase. Certain few strains, like E.Coli, are very dangerous, but most strains are harmless to human.

Yes, presence of coliforms, particularly in large amounts, are an indicator of sanitation problems, but as mentioned, small amounts can be found nearly everywhere.

very likely it’s due to hiring muslims who don’t use toilet paper because that ‘wasn’t there tradition’ to do so in the countries they lived in

[Noumenon]

Muslim toilet habits...

[MTsumi]

Another word the British misspell, what a load of crap.

[Jane Long]

Well, try putting that disclaimer info out, now.

Word is out that eColi ( 💩😷) is in the ice, in coffee chains.

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

That is really “crappy” news.

[imardmd1]

What about Panera? Seriesly.

[Berlin_Freeper]

Glastonbury Festival

[Rebelbase]

Well, the coffee is brown isn’t it?

[MrEdd]

Nah.

This is the fakest of all fake news.

Everything poops. Everything rots and dies.
If you analyse dirt to a fine enough level, it contains a lot of identifyably “fecal” material. Dirt everywhere. All dirt.

Let’s all be Howard Hughes. Fear the normal environment.
