Wait, scratch that...nope, nope, I still hate Starbucks with a fiery, irrational hatred. Shaw's has fair-trade organic coffee beans that are delicious, though...when I can afford them, I get those and make my own iced coffee. Coffee grounds composting is awesome though!! I am trying to talk my landlord into build a compost pile somewhere on the property....hard to plan that, though, since we do have bears that come down from the hill behind our house.

One of my Eco bloggers awhile back did some research and determined that, in terms of mass produced coffee and ignoring independents for the sake of argument, Starbucks was the most ecological choice. It had something to do with their napkins and cups being xx% recycled and them doing some sort of used-grounds composting program, but I don't remember all the facts anymore... Eeny hoo, Weeee! Becky's gots a blog! *bookmarks it* It’s funny to me how that source lists Starbucks as worse than DD.
