| | Starbucks vs. Its Addicts - The coffee chain bets you'll pay even more for your caffeine fix. By Daniel Gross |
| | Starbucks must be banking on the theory that the people who buy its coffee don't just need coffee, they need Starbucks coffee, which packs a higher caffeine punch than many competitors. | | | 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. | | | If Starbucks delivers more caffeine per cup than its competitors, and if people buy coffee primarily because it is an efficient caffeine delivery, then Starbucks' high prices don't seem so high. |

| | Starbucks is reportedly still using milk from dairies that allow cows to be injected with Monsanto produced rBGH. | | | Since 2000 Starbucks has increased the amount of fair trade organic coffee and coffee grown in conservation areas from 646,000 pounds to 3.4 million pounds. | | | Starbucks hopes to keep increasing the amount of coffee it buys under C.A.F.E. Practices after it reaches the 60 percent goal; however the company acknowledges that it probably will not reach 100 percent because of difficulties in countries where the government controls coffee supplies, such as Kenya. |
