When you pay 2.20 for a cup of coffee it better come with a damn cup

So you can throw it away?

To the person who posted the picture of the person in the wheelchair with the cloth to catch spills as part of a joke about OP, you're an ass.

Notice in the pic how the crease in the lid is over the crease in the cup? If you twist the lid so the drink hole is not directly over the cup seam this will not happen. Clearly you have not had as many peppermint mochas as I have....

The poster is correct, though I agree with others that you (and I) should get reusable cups.

It actually says this on the lid at Panera. Something like "Turn drink hole opposite of cup seam." It was quite enlightening.

It's enough to make me go down to the asian deli and get their starbucks coffee served in a foam cup (for less)

(end rant)

A lot of internet articles on this but the company is clueless and focusing on stupid other things.
