Starbucks Irony

Here's an amusing Starbucks post by Cassandra Forsythe over at the Female Fitness and Nutrition Scientist blog.
While I was in line waiting to order, I noticed the most ironic advertisement. Right there behind the counter on the Coffee of the Day sign was the following statement: "Try our new SKINNY lattes and have it with our warm cinnamon swirl muffin!"
I need to see if any Starbucks in my area have this bit of silliness posted in their stores. I had my own internal struggle with some irony that finally led me to stop having whipped cream with my NONFAT mocha. It's bad enough that I add peppermint syrup.
