I'm not accepting the latte propaganda anymore

Transcript

I'm not accepting the latte propaganda anymore. The coffees, guys. They're getting out of hand. I don't want a banana bread matcha latte. I don't want cookies and cream latte with the caramel swirl. I don't want a blueberry pie cheesecake latte. If the coffee sounds like it should be on the menu at the cheesecake factory, it shouldn't be a coffee. If the coffee has like cake or cookie pieces inside of it and you're drinking chunks of cake or cookie pieces through the straw. No. The only acceptable flavor for a coffee is vanilla. That's it. Vanilla. And then you're gonna be like, oh, but you didn't try the blackberry pie lemon meringue matcha from Blank Street. I tried it. I tried it. Tastes like shit. Okay? Tastes like shit. So no, I'm not accepting your coffee propaganda anymore.
