Is it cheap to bring your own cup of manner coffee? does it cost 5 yuan less? Which coffee shops have a discount on their own cups?

According to Chinanews.com Finance, flush Finance and Sina Finance and other media reports, the promotion of "bring your own cup minus 5 yuan" promoted by domestic boutique chain brands on behalf of "Manner" has been accused of hiding serious food hygiene and safety risks.

In the face of different shapes of cups brought by customers, Manner baristas did not disinfect the cups or change their disposable gloves, so they are prone to cross-infection, Chinanews.com said in a report.

In addition, Chinanews.com also said: in the Manner coffee shop, about 20 cups were filled with coffee, but the clerk only grabbed the cup with his hand and lifted it directly without sterilizing the cup or changing the disposable gloves on his hand.

So far, Manner Coffee officials have not made any response to the above statement.

According to the data, Manner Coffee, founded in 2015 by Han Yulong and his wife, is a local chain coffee shop in Shanghai.

At the beginning of its establishment, it focused on 10 yuan of high-performance-to-price boutique coffee in the form of a stall shop, with a price of between 15 and 25 yuan per cup. It is known as the "king of the price-performance ratio of Shanghai coffee" because of its high performance-to-price ratio.

As one of the representatives of domestic boutique coffee, Manner Coffee has always been committed to the cause of environmental protection. in order to protect the environment, Manner Coffee proposes that customers who bring their own non-disposable paper cups to stores to buy coffee can get a discount of 5 yuan. in the early days, customers in newly opened stores can drink coffee for free as long as they bring their own cups (not disposable plastic cups or paper cups).

As the name implies, "bring your own cup minus 5 yuan" means that when consumers go to a beverage store to buy drinks with their own cup of coffee, they can get a 5 yuan discount.

After the launch of the discount program of bringing your own cup minus 5 yuan, the ultimate performance-to-price ratio of a cup of coffee for as little as 10 yuan has become a popular magic weapon for Manner consumers, and Manner has also attracted many young people to wait in line to sign in for coffee.

During the COVID-19 outbreak last year, in order to reduce the risk of virus transmission, Manner suspended all stores bringing their own cup orders, and the pause button lasted for about a month before resuming.

In addition to the coffee brand manner mentioned above, Starbucks, Xi Tea, McDonald's and other brands have also launched the event.

But similarly, Starbucks cancelled its own cup service last year because of the epidemic.

Worried about the spread of novel coronavirus, Starbucks announced that it would temporarily suspend the use of personal cups in stores, and all drinks in stores use disposable cups to make coffee. This is also the first time that Starbucks has banned consumers from bringing their own cups to the store to buy drinks since the introduction of its own cup policy in 1985.

In fact, this service has achieved the goal of mutual benefit for both consumers and businesses.

On the one hand, consumers can enjoy discount discounts, and brands can attract more consumers by bringing their own cup discounts, thus bringing traffic to offline stores.

On the other hand, on the issue of environmental protection, customers can bring their own cups to reduce the use of disposable cups.

To put it simply, the measure that customers bring their own cups is a good thing, but it is worth thinking about the hygiene of the cups and the hidden dangers of food safety behind them.

After all, in the current environment, if the order volume of the store is relatively large, although some clerks wear gloves, they do not have time to follow up the disinfection and hygiene of the guests' own cups, or they do not change this pair of gloves. there will be the same pair of gloves touching the guest's own cup and then touching the guest's sex cup for the next time, which is also prone to the hidden danger of cross-infection.

Generally speaking, whether for consumers, shop assistants or merchants, both sides need to pay enough attention to the hygiene of their own cups.

As far as consumers are concerned, to ensure the hygiene of their own cups, as far as shop assistants are concerned, when making beverage cups, they should also do a good job of "one cup, one disinfection" to ensure the hygiene of each self-brought cup, while taking environmental protection as a starting point, we should also take into account the hygiene situation and provide protection for the health of consumers.

After all, when it comes to drinks, no matter which side, the safety of drinks is very important.

I would like to ask you, will you choose to bring your own cup to reduce your money when you buy coffee?
