3. Maggots feed off decaying organic matter...
usually flesh or feces. Something else beyond coffee was surely contaminating that machine. Uggh.

11. "... at no time did the area of the machine in question come in contact with the beverages."
What I don't understand is why some people think industry in this country can't be self-regulating. :mad:

13. Oh Mac Donald's!!
I remember in the town I used to live there was a MacDonald's. And my children were very small. My little one may not have even been born yet. And I just ran out to get a happy meal. So I went through the drive through and as I pulled up to the window I saw on the grass around the dumpster which was right next to the building, rats. Not just a couple, but the ground was literally covered and moving with them. Like out of a horror movie. I cannot emphasis how incredibly GROSS this was. I had already ordered but I pulled out of line and left. There was no way I was going to let my daughter eat anything from that place. I called the Health Department and reported them and hopefully something happened but we never went back. YUCK!

15. They should hang a 'BAIT' sign outside
It might bring in some anglers.

16. apparently the manager can't spell the word
B L E A C H.

Just how do they make their specialty coffee? Do they use flavorings after putting it in a cup or is there a great big espresso machine in the lobby that is bubbling and steaming, which if it was would kill the maggots too.

1.65 for a small coffee is outa my realm
