A BBC investigation found fecal bacteria in iced drinks from Starbucks and 2 other chains

Alison Millington

It's hard to match the refreshing taste of an iced coffee on a hot summer day — but a new BBC investigation may make you think twice before you order a chilled drink.

The BBC's consumer-affairs "Watchdog" program found that samples of iced drinks from Starbucks and two other UK chains — Costa Coffee and Caffe Nero — contained "varying levels of the bacteria."

Along with the ice, researchers also studied the cleanliness of tables, trays, and high chairs at 30 of the coffee-chain branches.

Costa Coffee was the worst offender, with seven out of 10 samples "found to be contaminated with bacteria found in feces."

Starbucks and Caffe Nero also tested positive for "fecal coliforms" in three out of 10 samples.

Okay, so it was in the UK . . . Still vomit-worthy. :puke: :runaway:

Notice the difference from leftists. No destruction of property, no annoying people, no offensive language, simply making a point and actually buying things.

In the parts of England we visited last spring Costa Coffee was as ubiquitous as Starchucks is here in the US. This sounds like a training and employee self-discipline issue, to which any restaurant can be vulnerable.

Do they hire Muslim immigrants at those places?  It might explain a lot. :whistling:

Exactly my first thought.
