Maybe you expect to be served coffee or other food and beverages at a temperature that is hot enough to cause third degree burns, but I don't.

I drink Starbucks latte and cappucino often, and have never had it so hot that it burned my tongue.

That's something I don't understand. Why make the coffee so hot? Hotter the coffee the quicker it turns bitter. Ok, you can wait longer for it to cool so you can drink it.

We have a Starbucks near us with a drive-thu.

"Its a good thing Starbucks doesn't have a drive-thru. They serve their coffee even hotter."

I can assure you I'll never get scalded from their coffee
though. Right up the street from them is a regional
convenience store that sells excellent coffee at about 1/4
the price of Starbucks & you get about 8 oz. more coffee.
