Re: Foolish advice for Starbucks

[Guest guest]

Oh, my! I never, ever would have thought to look for that.

I think I read (here?) that a product buyer for Peet's has celiac disease but said she didn't expect Peet's to carry GF items. Does anyone else remember that, within the last six months?

The Motley Fool had an interesting post today on how Starbucks might maintain their business in a bad economy:http://www.fool. com/investing/ general/2009/ 01/27/a-smart- strategy- for-starbucks. aspxIn which they state that:

Retailers and restaurateurs tend toward one of two choices when recession strikes:1. Lower prices to maintain traffic and move product.2. Become different enough to warrant a fair price premium.And they then go on to argue that gluten-free food offerings would be a feather in the cap of option #2. I tend to agree - given the amount of time I spend sitting in Starbucks soaking up the Wi Fi to get work done, having a bit of knish on the side would be most welcome indeed... ;-)The original post from Starbucks' blog is here, where you can *let them know what you think*:http://blogs. starbucks. com/blogs/ customer/ archive/2009/ 01/08/happy- new-year- from-the-

I don't remember that, but I do remember reading here or maybe

directly on the Mariposa website that Peet's coffee stands inside

Raley's stores are carrying individual packs of their biscotti

cookie. The Raley's closest to me doesn't carry them. Has anyone

seen them in their stores?
