Saw this coupon for a free pastry at participating Starbucks on July 21 from opening to 10:30 a.m. Sadly, despite the fact that I like their coffee, I have always been underwhelmed by Starbucks pastries. But still, free pastry.

Starbucks used to serve great muffiins. They were yogurt muffins made by Morrisson Bakery in NJ. I mean they were some of the best I have tasted. Then they disappeared a couple of months ago. Geez, keep the quality and raise the price if you need to.

Mouth:
Every baked good I've ever had at Sbux has been horrible. To me they taste like they have so much gum in them it's as if I'm trying to eat muffin flavored chewing gum. Blech! You couldn't pay me to eat the junk.
P.S. This piece lets everyone know about free, unhealthy, nasty food. What responsibility do newspapers have for the fattness of America?
