From the Paper:

"Starbucks is an American corporation that provides prepared coffee in many forms, most of which involve espresso. The company's products, however, are more than just coffee. Starbucks is a cultural icon that purports to sell coffee primarily, but some observers believe that coffee is simply a stalking horse and that following the stalking horse is the marketing of a cultural phenomenon. (Jung) Jung contends that the company is marketing the Starbucks experience."
