Starbucks: "Our studies show that people's favorite color is blue. Many people coming to our stores are looking for a full double rainbow, but sometimes this is because they want blue. So we are offering a great deal: as much free blue as you want. Our designers have chosen a shade that we feel you'll agree is calming and interesting. You can have the full double rainbow if you want, but believe us, blue is really cool."
