Fun fact: Starbucks failed in my city in Australia so now we don’t have a single Starbucks location. It lost to all of the independent local coffee stores!
It would be soooo cool to hear a dark history of Disney World/Land and how people go missing/die/secrets behind the amusement parks! The sinister energy is there
I worked at Starbucks for 6 years and I have a PLETHORA of stories. I refuse to step foot into a Starbucks because of their poor business practices. I’m so happy to see Bailey talk about them, I honestly think she could dive deeper because there’s so much more. 😭 But thankfully it’s being talked about. She’s a real one for that.
SAME!! I was only there for half a year because I couldn't take it anymore, got it once or twice in a pinch but now can't bring myself to anymore. Dare I say I'd search tooth and nail for a local roaster and risk my coffee addiction than go to Starbucks due to their practices.
Maybe you should make a video & like hide your face / change your voice so Starbucks can’t come after you (if you signed a NDA while working there, if not the coast is clear for you to rip them apart 😂)
Hey! After moving to Panama and seeing how so many coffee farmers were treated, we started our own coffee company The Morning Movement (yes the name has multiple meanings 😂) for so many reasons that you’ve laid out. We wanted to support coffee farms that weren’t abusing child labor or underpaying indigenous coffee farmers. We could go ON and ON about this topic, it’s definitely a dark one the deeper you go. Thank you so much for bringing light to this!

Recap by Tammy AI
My husband, who used to work for Starbucks for 6 years and hated his life while there, now works for a chocolate factory turned cafe called Monsoon Chocolate based out of Tucson, AZ - their chocolate and coffee beans (as far as I know) are ethically sourced and prepped with passion from a great team of like, less than 10 people in the shop. I highly recommend the chocolate covered mangoes 🤤
Nice! I wonder if Bailey will ever get into the cobalt mines in Africa and what these tech companies are doing to those kids to make batteries and sun panels. Expose the grift behind the solar and wind power scam.
@@jessicaberry815 the factory itself is on 22nd and 4th, the cafe is on Dodge and Fort Lowell 😁 as of rn they're not open Mondays and Tuesdays despite talks of being open all 7 days soon. We shall seeeeee but yeah check em out! The cafe has expanded to stocking interesting small business grocery items as well, my husband has brought home some amazing new snacks like black truffle kettle chips 🤤
You should do one on Dunkin! I know it’s pretty similar but the dark history behind it would be awesome! I worked there for 15 months and would love to spill a few secrets if you would be interested :)
If you're not Australian let your staff know that we Aussies have ps lattes in spring😂 we also have the Christmas blends in summer haha try it out one day
@@olegurrlwhy is that dumb? This is their spring time right now. And Christmas is their summer. That’s how seasons work in the southern hemisphere. It’s not fall/winter for the entire world. 🤣
So, I was working at a “We Proudly Serve” Starbucks account as a barista when the dark history Nestle episode came out not long before Nestle purchased Starbucks. I was there for 4yrs. I now work at a small locally own coffee shop who buys their beans from a fair trade roaster.
@@heidih3048 I know because my boss is very careful in choosing all of his ingredients and distributors but, either way it’s local so it’s overall better than Starbucks no matter if there is hard proof or not.
All the more reason to support your local shops! It’s basically standard these days for small shops to have fair trade sourced coffee beans. They put more care into the quality of drinks. I worked at Starbucks for three years and the quality keeps going down. The company only allows stores to have the minimum amount of hours they need to function, leading to short staffing and over worked employees. I watched so many people prioritize speed over quality of drinks because of pressure from management and higher ups.
My cousin's shop only uses organic coffee that's fair trade . They have the best coffee ever and it's always busy. Moved and tried a new shop. Definitely disappointed
How do we know that the small shops truly use fair trade coffee beans though? Just as Starbucks did, the small businesses may say it is fair trade without having true confirmation that it is actually fair trade. I think it is likely that most places claiming to use fair trade are not actually doing so. They are all for-profit businesses trying to maximize profits, after all, no matter whether they are a small company or a large one..
When Starbucks came to Melbourne I avoided it. We have a huge coffee culture here. Me and my friends decided to bite the bullet and try it. We took two sips, and binned it. Needless to say, Starbucks started closing stores really quick here, only a few little cafe ones left. Will never touch that garbage again. If you want to taste real coffee Bailey, come to Australia!
I used to work at Starbutts and they’re the phoniest company ever. Their “make the moment right” policy has lead to the most entitled customers I have ever dealt with in all my years of experience in the service industry. They literally reward customers for being Karens.
Ha, you changed the name of the company to make it funny, so clever, and a sick burn! I remember name calling when I was like 8, but then I grew up. Oh, not to worry though, I'm sure you will grow up one day as well.
I could never work there. Most retail abuse I ever dealt with was freaking ToysRUs... crazy thinking as many people had no problem calling employees every name in the book in front of their kids. We had a Starbucks in our parking lot, always busy, and often frequented by fellow employees (even when leave R Us and went to Michael's) That location had a wonderful staff, only a few times they were out an ingredient, I never went crazy rather I asked for a similar anything. They always made sure i tried it and liked it before paying. Never did I not like a suggestion. Once time there was extra foam from the P cream cold brew, they gave me the small cup full ❤. I always tipped 5.00 about the price of whatever venti. Around Christmas I made ornament shaped resin keychains with a xmas moch logo, custom ordered Starbucks ribbon and added coffee grounds to the backgrounds and painted the ornament top Starbucks green & and put 10 in the tip jar. The smiles and thank yous were so genuine. *Retail is so rough at times due to entitlement of customers. I'm sorry you, myself and other food/ retail employees have to grin and bare it.
I for one am very grateful that you pointed out the fact that Starbucks food and drinks all have a lot of calories and SUGAR. Im a Starbucks employee and believe it or not, I have actually had conversations with customers who are under the impression that Starbucks is THE "healthier" option.
Stopped buying Starbucks after 9/11.. ppl at GROUND ZERO after the first building collapsed ran to Starbucks for bottled water to rinse their eyes and the store was charging them.. literally stuff in ppls eyes and death everywhere and they still had the audacity to charge for water..
Just when you mentioned cups I remembered the cups in our town's Starbucks cost like £24 for a reusable cup. So not sure how that's meeting their goal of not encouraging the use of paper cups
In Greece Starbucks is generally considered to be an expensive place for tourists/forgotten hipsters/teenagers and people who simply want a smoke-free environment that they can study and don't mind mediocre coffee to go to. We have a strong coffee culture (especially where I live in Thessaloniki) with lots of amazing local coffee shops and even coffee chains. As Bailey said, it was the 2000s frappuccino craze that brought them into light but soon it deflated fast.
Yeah, cause the glass ones use shelf stable milk. If the milk doesn’t need to be refrigerated, it’s got to have a lot of changes that will make it taste differently.
@@blueeyedscorpio7I mean, yes, but before you open it and contaminate it shelf stable milk can sit on a shelf as long as it has been treated and sealed properly. Regular pasteurized milk has to stay refrigerated or it will spoil. We store it in our refrigerators, opened or not, unlike shelf stable milk.
Ready to get mind blown. The red lobster biscuits in the box aren’t either. Substitute buttermilk instead of water and three cups of shredded cheddar cheese instead of one. Then they’re identical You’re welcome
I'm currently in Ha Noi, and I haven't seen a single Starbucks. Soooo many local coffee chops with great coffee and a huge variety of beverages and coffee creations, and not a Starbucks in sight
As a huge lover of starbies especially during PSL season this has opened my eyes so much! Thank you for informing us! I love learning so much from you! ❤
Please do a video on Palm Oil. I remember my mom would tell me stories about her home country (Malaysia) on the harsh times growing up when it came to some of the places that were getting palm oil. Ps, I LOVE YOU BAILEY!!! Been following you for years! I listen to you every week while I am sewing my items for my business.
I haven't gone often, but Coffee Underground in South Carolina is wonderful. The shop is located in the basement of one of the buildings. You get in from the stairs at street level from the sidewalk above. Cool iron railing with a little bronze mouse statue that has sadly had it's tail snapped off. Gotta reach up and pet that guy on the head every time I go down the stairs.
I’m glad I saved this one for a day I chose to skip my Starbucks usual and drink my basic Folgers instead. I can’t say I’ll be going back. Thanks for the insight, Bailey!
That’s exactly why I don’t get coffee from Starbucks. I know all companies around us have some shady stuff going on, but we can at least try to stop supporting unnecessary stuff with our money. Starbucks lattes are not necessary. I really don’t like how every time they get caught, the come out with the “zero tolerance…” BS, then go back to redo something worse until they get caught again.
Ground Up Coffee, Littleton Colorado. They are Mom&Pop owned. Sadly there is a Starbucks across the street and Starbucks always has a huge line of cars. Ugh. We have to help the little guy. It’s only an extra 10 min of your whole life to walk in and order. Knowledge is power. :) Thanks Bailey. Xox
A great local and family owned small coffee shop that I love is located in Mission, TX and it's called Jitterz. I have always recommended their coffee to everyone(especially Starbucks lovers).
I live/work in a small town. Wonderful local shop!!! Starbucks moves in, local shop is always busy & Starbucks is closed half the time. Now, I will say! The local shop did step their game up ❤ So thank you Starbucks 😂
Now I feel so guilty for enjoying Starbucks! They came to SA and I was drawn to the novelty of it, their marketing is out of this world! Thankfully I have other options to enjoy. Thanks for your interesting stories!
Trees are still green and the swimming pool is still warm in SC. I still wear my bathing suit all day while I work on projects in the garage so I can jump in the pool when it gets too hot.
Leaves have been falling in Texas for a while because we've had a drought and 36 days of 100+ degree temperatures. Once we get some consistent rain and temps in the double digits, we might trade the margaritas and Ranch Waters for some pumpkin spice...
As a small business coffee person, I find it really interesting how some super small businesses have consciously gone to compostable cups, but major corporations still haven't been able to find out how to do that.
They don’t care! That’s why I always shop at small local companies. Leave my money local, helps my community and I think we should all start doing this❤️
The 7/11s in Chicago have paper coffee cups, wooden stirrers and while the slurpee/big gulp cups are plastic, the straws are biodegradable and wrapped in paper. It's not perfect but they continue to take steps. And its the only place I know that you can get an extra large hot drink of any kind for under 3 bux. That includes chai tea, lattes, hot chocolate and usually 3 or 4 kinds of coffee and a self serve coffee bar with flavored creamers and syrups, honey, cinnamon, sugar, Splenda, stevia and more at no extra charge. They are open 24/7 and employ several people on each shift. I don't know if they "care" and frankly I don't care whether they do or not. Im just glad they are taking steps to eliminate plastic.
Everything on earth, even created in a lab, can be called “natural.” Unless the compounds came from outer space, it came from earth, in some form. Hence, it came from nature, naturally.
I’m BEGGING you to do a dark history episode on palm oil. Been avoiding it like plague for years now but lately it has become even more complicated as I’m noticing more brands switching to palm oil 😢
It’s more frequently used now bc it’s used as a, “natural” preservative. Which is better than most preservatives. It’s not bad for you in moderation. BUT, the trade and process of it is disgusting. I feel for countries and animals harmed by deforestation 😔
I love my Dutch Bros. They are very community oriented, my local owner donated for my relay for life team, and while my daughter was in the hospital after chiari surgery they sent a mocha to me everyday thru my eldest with "stay strong mom" written on it and several punch cards full for her for after her recovery.
Bailey!!! Please do Dark History on: 1. Aliens and CIA’s efforts to hide them 2. Disney (but the history with abused child actors, I know you did the cartoon one) 3. Jehovah witnesses 4. Feet binding 5. Fraternities/Sororities
@@jackie9090I once got to hold an antique shoe that belonged to a woman with bound "lotus" feet. It was 200 years old and still smelled like the herbs they had to use to keep gangrene at bay mixed with rot. The weirdest thing about this impossibly tiny shoe (2.5 inches long) was the wear on the sole, where you could see someone had shuffled around in it, the staining on the lining from ointments they needed. I wanted to share because foot binding affected millions of little girls who became women, seeing that little tiny brocade shoe broke my heart and changed me. It made it so real, so recent. Sorry this turned into an essay, take care when reading about cruelty. ❤
Sorry for your loss, Bailey😢 grief is so tricky bc we never know when it will hit. Remember to take care of yourself, we want you healthy and at peace💚
I worked for Sbux for 4 years & MAN have I been waiting for someone to spill this tea!! 😂 Just listening to this has inspired me to pursue my dream of opening my own coffee/bakery shop even more than I already have been over the years

Ground Up Coffee, Littleton Colorado. They are Mom&Pop owned. Sadly there is a Starbucks across the street and Starbucks always has a huge line of cars. Ugh. We have to help the little guy. It’s only an extra 10 min of your whole life to walk in and order. Knowledge is power. :) Thanks Bailey. Xox
Yes! Disney part II please!
Palm Oil Episode Next Please! Like this message so Bailey hears our cries! The poor orangutans 😭
What pajamas are you wearing those look so cozy!
Wasn't ready for this
Also the dark side of Disney like Walt being a free mason and the real meaning of club 33
Yes, to the palm oil dark history episode, please!!
I've told my friends, "I don't go to Starbucks for the coffee, I go there for the sugar"😂
The banana episode is my favorite!!!
A great local and family owned small coffee shop that I love is located in Mission, TX and it's called Jitterz. I have always recommended their coffee to everyone(especially Starbucks lovers).
Yes please do a segment on Palm Oil.
Not a coffee shop but Stephanie Harlow and Derrick Levaser have criminal coffee and it’s amazing.
I live/work in a small town. Wonderful local shop!!! Starbucks moves in, local shop is always busy & Starbucks is closed half the time. Now, I will say! The local shop did step their game up ❤ So thank you Starbucks 😂
Now I feel so guilty for enjoying Starbucks! They came to SA and I was drawn to the novelty of it, their marketing is out of this world! Thankfully I have other options to enjoy. Thanks for your interesting stories!
I'm living for that color on you. It looks stunning!
Yes i want a whole video on palm oil. I stopped eating candy corn because its made with palm oil 😢
Me watching this while sipping my Starbucks coffee at Starbucks lol
Pain free local coffee in Oxford NC!
“She Chose Down” and “The Orpheum”❤
I actually love cheap am/pm coffee, they have those fresh ground bean machines now haha
Trees are still green and the swimming pool is still warm in SC. I still wear my bathing suit all day while I work on projects in the garage so I can jump in the pool when it gets too hot.
Ooh guys! Let's support another crime content creator and buy their coffee!!
Criminal Coffee
Loved the video Bailey 🖤
Leaves have been falling in Texas for a while because we've had a drought and 36 days of 100+ degree temperatures. Once we get some consistent rain and temps in the double digits, we might trade the margaritas and Ranch Waters for some pumpkin spice...
The Drowsy Poet in Pensacola, FL!
They’re my favorite alternative to Starbucks! And they taste better!
Would love for you to do a video about the Dairy Industry and how the government is involved in it.
Top Of The Morning Coffee for the win!!! 😊
There is even a Starbucks in the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. 🤔
Fantastic! Is Dunkin safe? :/ I pray the only dark thing about them is their coffee
Edit: Yes at the palm oil too xD
Could you do a video on Freaknik in Atlanta and its downfall??
Lavazza ! Italian coffee ! Try it !
Can you please please please do a dark history on Bob Ross, his dark past, and how his family has nothing of his due to lawsuits etc!!! ❤❤❤ please!
Yes to the palm oil also you should look into the Firestone rubber plantation in Liberia
Ronnoco is the best coffee out there. And, one of the oldest! Classic taste! Love it!
As a small business coffee person, I find it really interesting how some super small businesses have consciously gone to compostable cups, but major corporations still haven't been able to find out how to do that.
They don’t care! That’s why I always shop at small local companies. Leave my money local, helps my community and I think we should all start doing this❤️
They don’t care
Preach!
Because ESG is another policy to crush small business and give more boost to already heavily funded famous big multi national companies.
The 7/11s in Chicago have paper coffee cups, wooden stirrers and while the slurpee/big gulp cups are plastic, the straws are biodegradable and wrapped in paper. It's not perfect but they continue to take steps. And its the only place I know that you can get an extra large hot drink of any kind for under 3 bux.
That includes chai tea, lattes, hot chocolate and usually 3 or 4 kinds of coffee and a self serve coffee bar with flavored creamers and syrups, honey, cinnamon, sugar, Splenda, stevia and more at no extra charge.
They are open 24/7 and employ several people on each shift.
I don't know if they "care" and frankly I don't care whether they do or not.
Im just glad they are taking steps to eliminate plastic.
As an actual Starbucks employee the most disturbing thing is, that the syrups say. “Naturally flavored with natural flavors”
😂😂😂😂😂
Everything on earth, even created in a lab, can be called “natural.” Unless the compounds came from outer space, it came from earth, in some form. Hence, it came from nature, naturally.
It's crazy the way the term "natural flavors" is allowed to be used in American food packaging.
@@TheKindredTruckerit’s not crazy. It’s just $$ talks. Follow the $$
😄😅
I’m BEGGING you to do a dark history episode on palm oil. Been avoiding it like plague for years now but lately it has become even more complicated as I’m noticing more brands switching to palm oil 😢
Yes!! Would love an episode on palm oil
Yeah seriously. It is an oft-overlooked consideration sof a vegan diet. It's that bad!
Me too… it’s getting harder to avoid
It’s more frequently used now bc it’s used as a, “natural” preservative. Which is better than most preservatives. It’s not bad for you in moderation. BUT, the trade and process of it is disgusting. I feel for countries and animals harmed by deforestation 😔
Aye this!!
I love my Dutch Bros. They are very community oriented, my local owner donated for my relay for life team, and while my daughter was in the hospital after chiari surgery they sent a mocha to me everyday thru my eldest with "stay strong mom" written on it and several punch cards full for her for after her recovery.
I was gunna say them as well. I’m a Dutch brothers snob now ❤
I would love to hear a dark history on Dutch bros!! It’s getting really popular where I live and I’d be interested in the history of it all
LOVE DB!!! Their Banana Frost is amazing
I usually go to them for a hot chocolate with whipped cream.
Once you go Dutch you never go back 😂. I’ve never had bad coffee there ever…..Starbucks on the other hand 😒
We have to protect Bailey at all costs ! She just exposed one of the biggest chains !
I know. I always wonder how she's not getting sued every other minute
I felt that way, majorly, after the Dupont expose. It was her very first Dark History, I think, and I was a little afraid for her.
She tells the truth! I'll stand beside her! Which one of you wouldn't?
@@sherrybirchall8677no seriously i was very scared for her after the dupont thing… she probably has amazing lawyers!
Bailey is smarter than she lets on. She keeps herself so very private which is so very smart. And I'll second the idea that she has a great lawyer.
Currently watching this on my break at work (I work as a barista at Starbucks) while drinking a pumpkin spice frappuccino 😂
Don't drink it 😭
😂😂😂😂
Bailey!!! Please do Dark History on:
1. Aliens and CIA’s efforts to hide them
2. Disney (but the history with abused child actors, I know you did the cartoon one)
3. Jehovah witnesses
4. Feet binding
5. Fraternities/Sororities
Please do a Jehovah witness one Bailey!
im going to have to search what feet binding is now as idk what it is but its in quite the grouping there
And Cheerleading!
@@jackie9090I once got to hold an antique shoe that belonged to a woman with bound "lotus" feet. It was 200 years old and still smelled like the herbs they had to use to keep gangrene at bay mixed with rot.
The weirdest thing about this impossibly tiny shoe (2.5 inches long) was the wear on the sole, where you could see someone had shuffled around in it, the staining on the lining from ointments they needed.
I wanted to share because foot binding affected millions of little girls who became women, seeing that little tiny brocade shoe broke my heart and changed me. It made it so real, so recent.
Sorry this turned into an essay, take care when reading about cruelty. ❤
There are no aliens 👽🤖🦸♂️🧚♀️🧜♀️🧛♂️🧟♀️🧞♂️
Who else is boycotting Starbucks!?! 🎉❤
🇵🇸🇵🇸🍉🍉
@@ninamahmoud1248 BLESS 👏👏
Not me lol
Sorry for your loss, Bailey😢 grief is so tricky bc we never know when it will hit. Remember to take care of yourself, we want you healthy and at peace💚
Aww what happened ..? I love baily but all i remember is she moved ..i have to catch up and binge watch again..
@@Patricia-vf7nbshe didn’t post on YT but on IG she posted that her beautiful pup Saint passed 😟😭
@@Patricia-vf7nb She sadly lost her dogg-o. 🌈🐶
Am I the only one that doesn't love 🎃 spice anything!?! 😂😂
I think it's nasty but I love me some apple cider junk so I guess I am no better than the pumpkin spice gals lol
@@jackiedurand4654 I love 🎃 seeds thou 🤣😂
I love it but I don’t go to Starbucks anymore after working at home 3 years now.
@@blueeyedscorpio7 me too hahaha
I don't like it either, but I enjoy those tiny pumpkin candies😅😂
Bailey has impeccable timing as usual 💕😂 I just quit my job at Starbucks last week 🙊
Yes, go you!! -high five- I’m planning on leaving soon!! Can’t take it anymore.
Just don't do OF now.
Literally same 😂
Congrats on your promotion to customer
Congrats ❤
I worked for Sbux for 4 years & MAN have I been waiting for someone to spill this tea!! 😂 Just listening to this has inspired me to pursue my dream of opening my own coffee/bakery shop even more than I already have been over the years
Go for it!
Do it! Now more than ever people are so sick of corporate greed and will go out of their way to support local businesses.
❤👍👍👍👏👏👏👏
