Portland, OR Coffee @ McDonalds.
McDonalds-Capital Highway and Barbur Blvd.
(Obviously only of local interest unless you are a coffee connisseur.)
Imagine my surprise when they served "Seattle's Best" instead of the usual swill this morning. Cost $.35 with unlimited refills. Serve yourself.
The assistant manager asked me when I went for a refill whether I liked this coffee better than the old stuff.
He stated that he is getting complaints from customers that the coffee is too strong-That's because it tastes like coffee and not cup cleanings.
He also explained with earnest seriousness that he could not understand how coffee from Seattle could be better than from Costa Rica.
