"THEY'RE SHITTING EVERYWHERE!!!"

Starbucks is getting rid of its olive oil-infused coffee lineup that drew mixed reviews online.

The coffee giant confirmed to Nexstar that it will remove the Oleato drinks from its core menu in early November, less than a year after they debuted nationwide.

While Schultz touted the lineup as a “bold innovation,” some customers complained that the drinks caused laxative-like effects, as reported by TODAY and BBC.

  2. Coffee and olive oil. What a stimulating combo, but at least with the caffeine you won't fall asleep on the toilet while spraying the bowl

  3. Why bother? Anybody dumb enough to spend eight or ten bucks for a cup of so called coffee is the sh*ts anyway.

    1. Yeah. Only thing dumber is freaking K-cups or whatever the hell they're called. People don't realize how much money they're wasting on those stupid things because they compare the cost of one cup of coffee from a Keurig (or equivalent) to the cost of Starbucks coffee...instead of comparing it to the cost of making a freaking pot of coffee using Folgers etc. It's insane. Brilliant marketing, but it's crazy how well it worked. (The marketing)

  6. Maybe it is b/c half the population is chronically constipated due to lack of raw, unheated essential fats. When you give them the raw olive oil or other source of linoleic and linolenic, their bowels begin to work correctly again. Duh.

  9. yeah well.... it's Starbucks. Look, whenever somebody tries to sell you a dark-roasted coffee on the premise that it's cool, be advised: They're using cheap, crappy coffee beans, and they're roasting the ever-lovin' crap out of them, so you won't notice how awful they are. Then, a spike with milk, sugar, and whipped cream to further mask it, and olive oil, to help the sludge slide down.

    The best beans are the ones that are light-roasted, and by the way - they have the most caffeine, too - because they haven't had all the caffeine content cremated out of them.
