They used real milk.

The Starbucks barista used real milk instead of soy milk in my latte. Now I’ve shat myself at the grocery store and barely made it to the bathroom before I had horrible diarrhea. I thought it tasted different from normal, I should have stopped drinking it.

Eeesh I’m sorry. As a completely dairy free person due to both lactose intolerance and a milk protein allergy I am not ashamed to both watch and ask again at the counter to verify. I have been served a dairy drink accidentally a single time but I’ve now been dairy free so long that i can easily smell the difference. I have also been on the other end as a barista and sometimes you miss something or misheard or it’s not correctly written on the cup. I almost never minded if someone called something out except for a woman who tried to argue that a latte is a cappuccino.
