Please take the possibility of pieces of glass in your frappuccino seriously

I sometimes have these premonitions that turn out to be true. When I first walked past bottles of Starbucks Vanilla Frappuccino in a CVS store, I stopped and turned around. What the h***? I couldn’t believe that the Nordstroms of coffee had placed their product in a drug store. This had to be a test store for the product, or the store manager received a highjacked batch from the local crime lords. Remember the movie Goodfellas?

If this was legit, I felt nothing good could come from this. This needed further investigation and a trip around the corner to my local Target store was necessary. I entered the beverage section and there it was Starbucks Vanilla Frappuccino. I called a friend of mine to investigate over at the everyman and woman store that begins with the letter W and ends with T. I don’t shop there. I taught college ethics and it's a story for another day. My friend confirmed that there were bottles and bottles in the neighborhood W*****t.

How did this happen? Why did the Saks Fifth Avenue of coffee chains send bottles of vanilla Frappuccino down to the common people? Was there a consumer poll taken? Was there a ballot initiative that I missed? How were vanilla Frappuccino chosen from among the endless varieties of java Starbucks sells? Was there a march on Seattle? Did Niles and Frazier make a national declaration to let them drink Frappuccino?

These are just a few of the questions that I have regarding this retail phenomenon because bottled Starbucks Vanilla Frappuccino's are not sold in Starbucks stores. Hmm?

Now it has been reported by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that 302,400 bottles have been recalled due to the possibility of having pieces of glass in them. Imagine that. Glass is the stuff you cut your feet on by going barefoot in the summertime. Glass is the stuff that your dishwasher breaks to let you know that it doesn’t appreciate the made-in-China variety. Glass is the stuff that you never bring to the backyard or neighborhood swimming pool. Glass is the stuff that you back over coming out of the stadium parking lot and go oh s***!

So, let’s put the Tiffany coffee back in the I can’t afford wi-fi at my mom’s house nerd cafe where it belongs. Ditch the bottles and stick to the gourmet paper cups. No one wants to buy an iced coffee and have to add their own ice from their fridge and still seek out free wi-fi.

I knew this was a bad idea. Seattle, we have a problem.

Thank Susan Brearley, for the helping hands.
