Starbucks Goes Throwback Jerseys On Us

Starbucks has gotten rid of their iconic green and white cups and have returned to their 1971 brown and white cups. They are hideous looking. I know this is the cup they used to get the whole thing going, but it is not the cup that has established the company as a world class brand.

I know they are having issues right now. The franchise expanded too far too fast and got into areas they should have steered clear of and now they are trying to undo the damage.

Handing me my overpriced coffee in a crappy looking cup is not the answer.
