Comment on Ordering coffee in the USA triggers me

Technically you got the coffee you paid for. You got the same amount of coffee as you would have if you got normal ice. It’s priced based on the amount of coffee provided not the size of the cup. The cup being not full is more psychological than anything. If we want to get real technical, the price of a coffee is mostly labor and overhead not the ingredients. Thats why a large doesn’t cost that much more than a medium.

Are you a corporate apologist or something? cause your reply sounds like the most absurd logic ever. Back in 2010 I remember dunkin giving you more milk if you got a less ice coffee, it wasn’t an automated machine.

No, thats just the real world dude. It’s the same math that a locally owned coffee shop has to use.

I feel like it makes sense. If you order coffee you pay for the amount of coffee not the overall volume of the coffee and ice. This is actually a good thing because you won’t be wondering if they watered down your drink more than usual due to an error by the barista.
