I feel the same way about their coffee drinks! EEEEEH, not much coffee
and oh so many calories! Starbucks sells Starbucks and makes an
enormous profit.

Can hardly call it coffee if it isn't a straight coffee drink,
whatever the heck those are called. They even have their own
vocabulary for drinks.
