Hey ya Mac!
I have a love/hate with Starbucks. I think their coffee is wildly over rated and their OTC products are not the peak of the trade. But they are readily available and pretty consistent. Yes, I have a card and a balance on it.
When I am travelling I do end up with some of the canned product. Usually late in the afternoon when I need a boost to finish the day or when I'm actually staying in a motel and will need a caffeine source before any store is open. For that specifically they suit my purpose well.
Over priced and under the taste threshold. That about sums it up for me.
I truly like to 'find' good local roasters in my travels for my daily needs. On my summer trip I ended up with Folgers because I forgot to buy coffee at a mid sized town and ended up in Paulina, OR population 45. It turned out to be a good thing because my covid went active and I had to camp for a couple extra days. At least I had plenty of coffee and water...
