Interesting!

On a side note, here's a tip for all you starbucks lovers! They sell a size of drink that's not advertised on their price board behind the counter. It's called a "Short" size. It's smaller than the "Tall" drink. If you get a latte or cappucino, the "Shorts" have as much espresso (1 shot) as the "Talls" but the "Talls" just have more milk, and that's what you're paying for...more milk.

So.....

Short= 1 shot espresso + milk
Tall = 1 shot espresso + extra milk
Grande = 2 shots espresso + milk
Venti = 2 shots espresso + extra milk

Clearly the Shorts and Grandes are the best deals!
