McDonald’s vs. Starbucks

I don’t really like Starbucks, so I’m going to enjoy writing this immensely.

A recent Consumer Reports taste-test McDonald’s coffee beat out Starbucks!

The magazine says McDonald’s Premium Roast Coffee has “no flaws,” labeling it “decent and moderately strong.” The java from Starbucks, meanwhile, was determined to be “strong, but burnt and bitter enough to make your eyes water instead of open.”

Granted this is just talking about regular coffee, most people go to Starbucks for a Caramel Macchiato or White Mocha Frappuccino, but still that’s embarrassing. McDonald’s has also recently starting offering other drinks as well, such as lattes and cappuccinos in some locations.
