Starbucks to sell instant coffee

I don't think most people give a crap what their coffee tastes like as long as it is warm and gives them that comfort feeling. Hell my sister in-law makes me buy chicory for the coffee I roast for her to French roast, in my opinion chicory was a way to stretch coffee in hard times not something to do by choice, but to each their own.

Never seen a $5 cup of coffee any where but I certainly won't touch the $.10 stuff. As far as expensive espresso drinks go I will pay the $5 for a double shot and skip the $2000 start up cost and the insanity that is sure to follow.
