Last month, Starbucks suddenly unveiled its "drainage brand" and launched an unimaginable new product, "Oleato olive oil" coffee, which has sparked a heated discussion among netizens.

Since the series was inspired by the daily habit of Sicilians in Italy to drink olive oil, the product was not originally released in the United States, but chose to be sold in Italy.

But when the new series of products went on sale in Italy for three days, Italian netizens complained crazily that they were too greasy! Many Italian netizens said that the most important feature of virgin olive oil is that it will not feel greasy, but this series of ice drinks is really indescribable! Ice will make the oil stick around the mouth, which is very uncomfortable. Some professional netizens analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of various products, saying that apart from being a little greasy, other aspects were quite good, but did not convince other netizens who felt very greasy that Italian media interviewed some friends who were drinking new products on the street. one of the interviewees said: from her point of view, this product may be much more attractive to foreigners than Italians. Therefore, Starbucks is very unswerving! The product will be on shelves all over the United States on March 27! Also three days later, what is the evaluation of this series of coffee in the US market? "it's so weird! Too much like lard coffee. "Yes, consumers in the American market can't accept Starbucks' innovative breakthroughs. Combined with the complaints of netizens in the United States, the greasy taste is not what they think is weird, but that the olive oil condenses on the ice and looks like lard paste.

Some netizens said that if the products of the cold drink series are not drunk immediately, the oil will float on the surface of the drink and gradually condense, but at present, Starbucks is rarely equipped with straws, and they are all drunk directly through the small hole in the lid. Oil to oil, coffee to coffee, solidified oil sticking to the mouth. If you really try, you die.

Some netizens said that before drinking, a barista from Starbucks in Italy told her not to try, but netizens didn't believe in evil, so they tried. It's too late to repent.

Starbucks decided to launch this series of products, in part because it is so new that no one in the whole industry has tried it and can attract a lot of consumer attention. One is because the range of products can attract health-conscious consumers, because direct use of olive oil can reduce inflammation and help heart health.

Um... But the reaction seems to be a little bit of a rollover.

In addition to the Italian and American markets, Starbucks plans to launch the product in the UK, Japan and the Middle East. Can this product become a classic product in the regular menu for a long time? Let's wait and see.
