You don’t buy Starbucks food for the value. You do it cause there’s one on the way to work/school.

The secret is to use pork when you make Carne con chile

That’s twice as much cheese & ham as the ones in the U. S., which cost about the same.
At least post some original content!
No. Steal the shit out of Reddirt. Idgaf.
It’s your own damn fault for trying to get food at fucking Starbucks, the coffee isn’t even good unless you’re at pikes place
Yeah, support a local sandwich shop.
Probably won’t be much cheaper but it’ll be ten times the quality.
That’s like $13 up here in Canada. But I’d assume they have the same sandwiches here. But wow, that’s outrageous.
This is not a sandwich.
Maybe they should call it “Ceci n’est pas une sandwich” and charge £12 instead.
The Treachery of Starbucks
This is sandwich, but not for 8£ maybe 20 whatever they use in UK I’ll just say cents or even less than that
No, it’s just bread and cheese and ham.
two slices of bread + something inbetween = sandwich
The most popular sandwich in France is the Jambon-Beurre, which is just butter and ham
I’d call that buttered ham. A sandwich requires bread!
I see no butter or similiar here.
It’s my wife! millions of boomers laughing
I’d just like to point out that OP is either lying or has been scammed.
Starbucks have consistent pricing and the most expensive sandwich in the UK is £5.10, technically 5.25 for a plant based breakfast item, see here for full menu prices.
But people like getting angry at cost of living issues right now (understandably) so this will get hundreds of upvotes despite being a lie.
Lying. They reposted from a Reddit post that shows an eight dollar Starbucks sandwich.
The parts I like are the attention to detail on the size of the bread being perfectly rectangular, the cheese slices being perfectly equally sized, and the consistently overlapping slices of ham that span the exact length of the bread. Then that all combines to form a shitty looking sandwich. Perfectly optimized sandwich designed by accountants.
this is the kind of sandwich i make while hungover, take one bite, and then go “oh god i forgot the mayo”
I’ve been to a Starbucks once in my life and that was in August of 2012. I have never been back since I never plan to go back. I absolutely do not understand the appeal.
It brings that consistent Seattle blandness everywhere it goes.
Neal Stephenson said it best in Snow Crash :
"In olden times, you’d wander down to Mom’s Café for a bite to eat and a cup of joe, and you would feel right at home. It worked just fine if you never left your hometown. But if you went to the next town over, everyone would look up and stare at you when you came in the door, and the Blue Plate Special would be something you didn’t recognize. If you did enough traveling, you’d never feel at home anywhere.
But when a businessman from New Jersey goes to Dubuque, he knows he can walk into a McDonald’s and no one will stare at him. He can order without having to look at the menu, and the food will always taste the same. McDonald’s is Home, condensed into a three-ringed binder and xeroxed. “No surprises” is the motto of the franchise ghetto, its Good Housekeeping seal, subliminally blazoned on every sign and logo that make up the curves and grids of light that outline the Basin.
The people of America, who live in the world’s most surprising and terrible country, take comfort in that motto."
A baguette with just that is a war crime
Looks more like a type of ciabatta.
Why do people still give them money?
I get the sentiment, but most places don’t have even halfway decent coffee shops. Everyone gives starbucks shit (rightfully so), but the fact is if you walk into a random cafe in America, it will most likely be inferior to starbucks. The level of quality in American coffee is just abysmal. And if you’re traveling, you won’t know if the cafe you take a chance on is a hidden gem (spoiler, it never is). I was in Austin one time and I found this hipster place that had great reviews on google. The interior was really nice, nice place to work, spacious, etc. The coffee tasted like dog water. It wasn’t mediocre, it was trash. I’m sure Austin has great cafes, but unless you live there how will you know? Starbucks is a consistent mediocre coffee.
I mean you could see what was on it before you bought it, that’s on you dog. All you did was prove people will pay that much for a shit sandwich.
