Expired whipped cream
A few days ago, I went to my local Starbucks and noticed that the whipped cream in my drink tasted sour and just off. Thinking it was a one-time issue, I went to another Starbucks nearby that same day to reorder my drink—only to experience the exact same expired whipped cream. When I took it back, the barista checked the bottle and confirmed that it was expired. She opened a fresh one, remade my drink, and everything was fine.
Fast forward to today, I went to a completely different Starbucks, about 30 minutes from home, and once again, the whipped cream was expired. My drink itself tasted fine, so I know it’s not just my taste buds. Plus, the previous barista had already confirmed it was expired.
So now I have to ask… why is every Starbucks in my town serving expired whipped cream? This is so strange!
