is anyone still buying this stuff? I mean, it is well known that Tyson is the worst of the worst. Starbucks sells bad coffee for 5 times the price. Kellog and other fake 'food' are mostly sugar with added chemicals. I read a book which described the process of making that kind of stuff, that will make you think twice before ever eating it again ( I think it was 'formerly known as food"). Super selection. In the ditch with all that filth! May be better in the sewer, on second thought LOL

Go to a supermarket and see what is in people's carts... Arkansas based Tyson has long had a bad reputation and was tied to the Clintons...

People bitch and moan about the cost of their meat, which is already ridiculously low so I see that some bean counter over at Tyson came up with the idea that wiping the workforce and starting fresh with cheaper hires will keep the costs down. How many people will pay 50 cents more/pound for their crappy nuggets just to keep someone they don't know hired? Not many I would guess. As for Planet Fitness...that's just some F-d up thinking there. I hope they fail right to bankruptcy.

That El Salvadorian woman is probably making good money IF she has worked there for 20+ years like she said... Probably came as a refugee or illegal but must be a citizen by now...

"Since 2013, Starbucks health insurance plans have included coverage for gender-affirming surgery. In 2018, Starbucks expanded health insurance plan coverage to include procedures that were previously considered cosmetic — including hair removal, facial feminization and hair transplants, among others."

Thank you, CS. Unsurprising re the insurance. It's just been so long since I've been in a Starbucks...I succumbed a while back, but just once when I was desperate for a coffee. Felt guilty about it and have never done that again. The time before that? Cannot remember. My husband absolutely cannot stand them or their "coffee."

If they actually put that message on the coffee cup thingees?

I never saw that on any cup of coffee I've gotten there but maybe it's regional thing for the woke folk in WA, OR or NYC. I guess you could try and scan the QR code in the photo.

Best that they keep it quiet since most coffee buyers don't care about gender butchery surgery. That kind of advertising will lose more customers than gain.
