Did you know that legally none of our drinks have chocolate? The Java chips are only 11% cocoa product (self.starbucksbaristas)

I kind of wonder if that’s why we call things chocolate-y and mocha. >> the chocolate cookie crumble tho, hmmmm.

Yes in fact it is they aren’t allowed to call it chocolate which is also why the coffee and chocolate flavoured frapp is called a Java chip because the word chocolate isn’t used there or anywhere on the package for the bar mocha powder or the Java chips.

Chocolaty with a y it’s not claiming to be chocolate it’s claiming to be chocolate flavoured

Are we really arguing about chocolate? Why is this such a big deal?

Chocolate cookie crumble creme frap though? Or do the cookie crumbles negate the legality of the chocolate thing?

In Canada we call those mocha cookie crumble frapps

That’s what we call the coffee version, but the non-coffee version is called the chocolate cookie crumble (in the US at least)
