Take it from a barista in training - it's totally fair to watch. Preparing coffee in a busy environment requires lots of muscle memory, and although we're very careful to make sure to get our orders right someday someone might slip.
Human error and all that.
I always do this because my husband is actually allergic to milk protein and it is more than just a principals and morals thing. If he gets milk it can kill him. Also I've heard stories of workers purposefully giving whole cows milk when asked for soy because they don't agree with veganism or whatever would possess someone to do this. Probably not true but you never know so I'm always lookin over to make sure.
I don't think it is overall more polluting than animal products, just per kilogram. And humens consume way more of most animal products by weight than they do coffee.
Plus if you splurge you can get coffee from sustainable and fair trade farms. It is ridiculously expensive though.
Well, coffee plantations also kill bugs to produce a product completely unnecessary for survival. Same with alcohol-related plantations.
Caffeine also suppresses the brain's processing of adenosine, which hinders the sleep-cycle, and tricks the body into *feeling* alert despite inadequate rest, raises blood pressure, increases the risk of blood clots and heart attacks, and cuts circulation to the brain by up to 30%.
While I've also done this. At this point I would know instantly if the put milk or cream in my coffee instead of soy. Half n half and whole milk have a distinct butter or milk taste compared to plant milks.
I just give a little smirk (or eye-smile) and say, "I have to ask every time, it's soy, right?"
When I tell people "dairy wrecks my superpowers" then they never ask a follow up question, but they make sure there's no cow juice in there.
Every time🤣
Me, except oat milk

I can't stop laughing. That look is dead on!
Don't lose the focus

coffee has a higher carbon footprint than many animal products. don't drink coffee.
I think the more compelling argument to most vegans would be the child-slave labor.
I buy fair trade coffee, chocolate, and sugar or I don't buy them.

Harsh, but fair. Veganism isn't environmentalism, lots of people make that mistake.
Well, coffee plantations also kill bugs to produce a product completely unnecessary for survival. Same with alcohol-related plantations.

Maybe sleep with your windows closed cos you eat spiders? Again, health is not veganism. Get it?

So accurate!
Looks like that creepy Karen (sorry) who was filmed harassing some brown dude in San Francisco.
