Make Starbucks Even More Vegan-Friendly June 24, 2008

Posted by Marta | Permalink | Comments ( 10 ) | TrackBack

Those of you coffee-addicted vegans out there are, I'm sure, well-aware of the fact that Starbucks offers soymilk at every location. It's the world's largest chain of coffee shops, so it's pretty sweet that you can go get your caffeine fix in a very vegan way practically anywhere in the world. Wouldn't it be so amazing if you could get a tasty vegan snack while guzzling down your drink? Yup, we thought so, too.

Have you guys seen MyStarbucksIdea.com? Basically it's a site where anyone can go to suggest their ideas for Starbucks. Starbucks has told PETA that it takes the comments received from the web site very seriously, so please take a few minutes today to ask the company to start offering vegan pastries, snacks, and sandwiches! After all, if companies don't know there's a demand for vegan options, they don't have any incentive to carry them—so it's that much more important to make your voice heard.

Check out former Starbucks barista turned peta2 staffer Rachel enjoying a soy iced coffee espresso:


And wouldn't a vegan brownie to go with that drink be delicious? It's a reality at some Starbucks locations in Canada. Check out these brownies that Ryan took a picture of at a Starbucks in Kitchener, Ontario:


It only takes a second to register to submit your idea, and this could go a long way in making Starbucks even more vegan-friendly. I mean, who doesn't want vegan brownies (and other deliciousness) at all Starbucks locations?

i love starbucks chai with soy!
mmmmmmmm
hold the dairy whip cream(which would be better if it was non dairy like cool whip that now comes in a can!!!!!!)
I think it is GREAT idea for the comments and it isnt just for vegans it is great for everyone because it is so healthy yet tastes amazing, and of course cruelty free!
EVERYONE WHO READS THIS SHOULD GET ALL THEIR FRIENDS TO GO MAKE SUGGESTIONS!

I'm guessing this is why people are spamming the Starbucks Idea site with the same vegan-food idea over and over again. It's actually NOT HELPING, because duplicate ideas get buried.

A "more vegan food" post is currently one of the most popular ideas on the site, and by VOTING ON IT instead of submitting the same idea again, you'll get it considered by Starbucks.

Please stop spamming the Starbucks site.

I work at Starbucks and today I made a vegan frappacino. Ask for a strawberries and cream made with soy instead of cream base. Its really good!!!!!!!!

Hey!
Ok, this may just be because it is a very small Starbucks, but whenever I igo to this one Starbucks in the mall, I get a Mocha Frappucino.
And I go "Is there any way I can get it with Soy milk?"
And they say NO.
I was like, "What the hell?!"

Just thought I would let you know.
