    Don't know whether it's true or not, but I was told that since last year both Timmies and McD's has changed suppliers of their ground coffee and now McD's have Timmies old supplier.

    McDonald's every time. Canadian McDonald's more specifically, coffee at the USA McDonald's tastes like skunk ass.

    Very true, the MCD lid is way more user friendly.

    I grind and pump at home... but none of that Folgers crap!

    After 10+ years with the same machine (Starbucks Barrista), I'm pretty good and quick to make a latte or two.

    Tea is the one thing that Rotten Ronnies does not have a proper procedure for preparing which to me is odd considering how they have such detailed procedures for everything else. They sell so little that they don't have a pot of it already brewed, instead you get the tea bag and the hot water, which would be fine if you didn't order cream with it like I do. They pour in the cream with the sugar unless you ask for it on the side. The result of this is that the cream latches onto the tea leaf and prevents a lot of flavor transfer. If ordering tea from them, insist hat the cream is 'on the side'.

    Perhaps if they didn't screw tea up so badly they'd sell enough to justify keeping a pot at the ready. Build it and they will come.

    I personally dont drink coffee, but my wife says McDonalds' makes good coffee, and that Tim Hortons puts a b***h additive in theirs, cause every time she drinks it, she turns into one. No comment.........

    In my 40+ years I have tried a wide range of coffees, from Nescafe Instant to hand pressed in a classy Ethiopian restaurant and a bunch in between. It all tasted like burnt crap. I quit trying, you guys can have it.

They knew they had the loyalty of most and abused it. I now hate their products. Sad reality that money trumps everything these days. No more pride in the products they schlepp.
    I'm getting that way, timmies is nothing like they were. After their fiasco with their employees breaks a couple of weeks ago I will avoid them as much as possible.
