Iced drinks always look good but you never finished them no matter what size.

 

Also, theyre for homosexuals.

Does it piss anyone else off that they named their sizes after make-believe Italian words?

they're real words

 

grande = large

venti = twenty

trenta = thirty

 

i don't really understand why they named their drinks after numbers though?

the names correspond to the number of oz of coffee.

 

for made up Italian words, see olive garden.

Starbucks must be banking on the theory that the people who buy its coffee don't just need coffee, they need Starbucks coffee, which packs a higher caffeine punch than many competitors. The Wall Street Journal earlier this year sent samples of coffee from Starbucks, 7-Eleven, and Dunkin' Donuts to Central Analytical Laboratories. The lab reported that a 16-ounce Starbucks house blend coffee contained 223 milligrams of caffeine, compared with 174 and 141 milligrams in comparable amounts of Dunkin' Donuts and 7-Eleven coffee, respectively. According to the Journal, the average Starbucks coffee drink contains 320 milligrams of caffeine. (This chart from the Center for Science in the Public Interest shows different measurement levels, including the scary finding that a 16-ounce Starbucks grande has nearly three times as much caffeine as a No-Doz.)

I just looked it up, and venti and trenta are italian for 20 and 30, respectively.
