Takeaway coffee, globally, has also turned into a statement of personal worth. “I can afford to pay someone else to make me this drink.”
I remember back before everyone walked about with coffee in their hands, I was in Seattle (circa 1997) and people had cups of coffee in seal tight mugs on the bus and I thought that looked as sophisticated as all hell. Fast forward 24 years and we have turned that idea into the earth polluting hell that takeaway coffee has become.
