As an owner of a gargantuan corporation, I would like to know what benefits this coffee may have for my collective organisational unit.

I don't think so - where is it? I've been to a lot of DD in Rhode Island but mostly college hill, fox point, downcity in Providence & then out in East Providence.
Dunkin Donuts coffee is amazingly good if you just buy a bag of the coffee beans, grind them yourself and make it fresh w/no cream or sugar.

Right now I'm drinking a cup from the work coffeemaker and it's horrendous.. milk & sugar wouldn't help, they'd just make the coffee breath phenomenon worse.

FYI if anyone DOES want a cup of that burnt Starbucks blend, they're giving out free cups until noon today. I don't know why, exactly.

and that context is that DD coffee isn't so bad, unless you are a coffee snob.

they showed it on the phantom gourmet show in Boston. it's all warm muted browns and reds, made to look like a cross between panera and starbucks i think. they sell paninis and big soft cookies and all sorts of amazing looking test crap
as well as looking like they're brewing good coffee for once.

Allzay, if I knew it was this easy to yank your chain, I'd be tempted to do it a lot more often. Keep that in mind when you start a thread called "Worst pizza award goes to: Pizza Hut" or "Worst sex award goes to: losing my virginity"

Krispy Kreme fucking rules. I cant believe it took that long to bring it up. Somehow their coffee tastes like a donut...but without their donuts I wouldnt give a damn about the coffee.

Nonsense. Coffee is something I drink every day, thus making its taste much more crucial to me than that of wine, which I have maybe once or twice a month.

I didn't know cafe au lait was not common in the U.S.; maybe that's why I sometimes don't see it on menus. I always order it, or cappucino. What is the difference between cafe au lait and cafe latte? I ordered one in Las Vegas, Neveda, and my server had a snit and acted like he'd never heard of it before, and I said, I thought it was on the menu, and then he said, oh, the other one.
Maybe this is why I love iced coffee so much--because it gets so watered down with the milk and the ice cubes.
No sugar, by the way.
P.S. Would it kill Panera to offer some kind of coffee besides regular coffee, fill it up yerself? Since they purport to be a bread and bakery, shouldn't they start with the some Starbucks-esque action there?

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.

No, what Weiner means is that being a wine snob takes TEN times the EFFORT of being a coffee snob. Weiner, regardless of his CASH position or his REAL occupation, hasn't ever WANTED to be a wine snob and isn't. TOMBOT is ALSO apparently TOO lazy to ask Weiner what he MEANT so TOMBOT makes up shit to MAKE himself feel SUPERIOR.

Nothing goes better with a nice after dinner espresso than a lecture on laziness. I'm sure that's a hit at parties.
