    Italy has nearly 140,000 bars and cafés across the country in which Italians drink coffee the way New Yorkers once took cigarette breaks (Faris, 2012). The need for a company like Starbucks is there but the rich history of coffee in Italy is the biggest obstacle stopping Starbucks from making that move. Starbucks prides itself on using expensive Arabica coffee beans with complex flavors. In Italy, because of cost and market demand, many roasters mix in significant quantities of bitter Robusta beans (Faris, 2012). Starbucks would have the challenge of satisfying the coffee culture of Italy why adapting its taste to the customers.…

    There is coffee present, also showing what took place inside the coffeehouses. (The Coffee House Politicians). Another painting was “Turkish girl having coffee on the sofa, from the ‘Collection of Prints of Costumes from the Levant” Engraved by I.Haussard shows apparently a Turkish girl enjoying her coffee. Her servant is bringing her more coffee, with also a plate of danishes. The Turkish girl’s facial expression sort of looks ecstatic about having more brought to her. From these pictures, I have gained that the Europeans had an addiction, but very much loved the coffee and the houses as well. I have learned the importance of Coffee and Coffeehouses and how it not only caused conflict, but happiness within the Europeans. Thanks to them, we now have millions and millions of coffeehouses where we can now discuss things and expand the…

    The Effects of Caffeine

    • 639 Words
    • 3 Pages

    According to National Geographic's January edition, less than 200 years ago, people figured out that the buzz they got from coffee and tea was the same chemical. In 1820, after coffee shops had spread across Western Europe, the German chemist Friedlieb Ferdinand Runge first isolated the drug in a coffee bean. The newly discovered drug was dubbed "caffeine" meaning something found in coffee. Scientists then began to find caffeine in many of its natural forms. In more than 60 plants, scientists found caffeine in kola leaves, cacao pods, and tea leaves just to name a few. Caffeine motivated the industrial revolution in Western Europe. Boiling water to make coffee or tea helped decrease the spread of disease between workers. Also, the caffeine in their systems kept them from falling asleep while working the machines. In a sense, caffeine is the drug that makes the modern world possible. Without that useful jolt of coffee or diet coke or Red Bull to get us out of the bed and back to work, the 24-hour society of the developed world couldn't exist.…

    Coffee is a beverage that is globally consumed, but also a product that has different values in different parts of the world. The role coffee plays in society differs around the world, from the farmers who grew the crops to the people who constantly consume them. Social theoretical perspectives are capable of showing the different roles coffee has in different societies. Symbolic interactionism, functionalism, and Marxism are three theories which show coffee’s role sociologically. These theories show how coffee affects people physically, how it affects them emotionally, how it leads them to have interactions, how it connects different parts of society, and how it’s economically controlled by a select few.…
