If you never tried cafe au lait, cappuccino and others, you’d never know if you liked them or not and wouldn’t seek them out or bother to experiment with the other drinks.
Has nothing to do with being snooty, and has everything to do with sticking to the things you know and tried as opposed to going out of your way to try and discover new things.
Point is some people never go out and explore new flavours at the risk of not liking something.
Obviously, everyone is entitled to enjoy the drinks they like, but at least in Canada where I am from, Tim Horton’s reigns supreme, and before I started drinking my coffee black I drank their coffee all the time, but as soon as I took all the sugar and cream out of it I realized it was frankly pretty terrible.
I think that’s what Whitebrow is referring to (not even Tim’s specifically, just lower tier coffees from such chains) I also see Folgers, and Maxwell House get consumed a lot here, and I find those particular brands to be fairly low quality as well.
A Cappuccino made correctly with espresso is quite delicious, but that’s a very different beverage from brewed coffee with a lot of cream and sugar.
A well-made americano tastes great without cream and sugar, too. When Tim Horton makes a bad americano that doesn’t mean that americano is a bad drink, it means that Tim Horton makes a bad product.
Timmies coffee used to be better back in the day, but then they changed suppliers and since then it just tastes like somebody forgot it in the oven for a few hours too many.
Pretty snooty outlook on coffee, especially considering that café au lait, cappuccino etc. exist.
Coffee snobs are the most hilarious variety of snob.
It’s the sincerity of the nonsense that really sets them apart.
I think you missed the point.

That kinda sounds like Starbucks …
