Do you still like to drink Starbucks after you know the five secrets of Starbucks?
Pumpkin latte (Pumpkin Spice Latte)
Starbucks has sold 200 million cups of pumpkin spice lattes since it launched pumpkin lattes in 2003. Some enthusiasts can't resist the charm of pumpkin latte and can't help but want to know the secret.
Starbucks responded that the latte contains a "pumpkin sauce" that can be sold. However, it is difficult to make the same taste with such a recipe. Why?
It is reported that the pumpkin spice syrup used by Starbucks has a chemical flavor, and eating too much can easily cause headaches. There is no pumpkin in the pumpkin sauce sold abroad, but a carcinogen, caramel pigment (Caramel Color IV).
Fair Trade Coffee
Starbucks' website says Starbucks authorizes a small number of farmers to grow coffee beans and protect the environment. But in fact, the market price of Starbucks coffee beans is only 3% of the production price. When Ethiopia tried to register a brand trademark, Starbucks already applied for the same brand.
If Starbucks successfully applies for the trademark, it means that Starbucks can use the trademark freely and free of charge, in other words, Starbucks can deprive Ethiopian farmers of 80 million yuan a year.
A secret coffee shop
Although Starbucks is controversial for its continuous expansion, it still can't stop the development of Starbucks. Seattle has set up several branches. On the face of it, these coffee shops look like independent stores, but in fact, they are all Starbucks branches.
When the "plot" was exposed, Starbucks claimed that the stores were trying out new products, while small coffee shops said Starbucks was trying to crowd out small coffee shops.
Moreover, Starbucks is also trying to buy companies that make coffee machines, while many coffee shops point out that some maintenance companies deliberately delay repairing the machines.
Starbuck tea
In 2012, Starbucks bought a tea company called Teavana for a high price of 620 million. Although Starbucks says all the teas here are natural and organic, Teavana's most famous tea has been detected to contain 23 different pesticide residues.
77% of the samples can not pass the EU import standards. 66% of the samples contain endosulfan, an insecticide that can cause infertility. However, Starbucks still sells Teavana in its own way.
Trademark
The original Starbucks logo was based on a 16th-century Scandinavian wood carving of a double-tailed mermaid with naked breasts and a double fish tail.
Later, Starbucks changed its brand name. The new logo follows the original mermaid pattern, but with some modifications, she does not have naked breasts and changes the color of the logo to green, which represents daily coffee.
To tell you the truth, who wants to see such a disgusting logo when drinking coffee?
