Forbidden Starbucks


BEIJING (Reuters) - A controversial Starbucks coffee shop in the Forbidden City, the former imperial palace at the heart of Beijing, has closed its doors after years of opposition.

I would agree that this is not the best place for a starbucks but at the same time with the Olympics coming up you got to have something for the tourists who are probably going to be freaked out by stories like this one out of Beijing, where they were substituting cardboard box for pork in steamed dumblings. Watch below to see how they were made.



I think this will be enough to make me a few people stay away from the Olympics.

Our society may use more dangerous matter with most sophisticated way.
