I've never understood why colossal quantities of soft drinks are beneficial, but I can't help but feel intestinal sympathy for anyone set to consume a new Starbucks Trenta size coffee.
With a capacity of 916mL, this supersized paper coffee cup may do more harm than good -- if you're ordering anything other than tea for two. The average stomach can fit around 900mL of liquid, but my advise to anyone with big eyes at the coffee bar is to order a triple espresso instead.
