Sometimes elaboration is needed to get a better understanding of a situation and then there are other times when it would be kinder not to elaborate. Honestly, I am torn about which situation this is. When I see a sign like this I can't help but play out the possible scenarios that led to its being added to the vending machine. Did the person notice the black moldy lumps while it was despensing, when they pulled the cup out of the machine or on the way to their lips.
It also makes me wonder just which part of the caffe latte actually contained the black moldy lumps. According to the machine, 1-D-7 gives you a caffe latte which is whipped with lightener and sugar. What exactly is lightener? I assume it is some sort of non-dairy creamer but why not say that? Lightener sounds to me like something that you apply to shoes or laundry when they are stained not something that you put in your coffee. And if it was indeed the lightener that was black and moldy, (I guess that would technically make it a darkener) how long had it been in that machine? As I understand it those non-dairy creamers can last forever and don't even need refrigeration.
At least the poor person who discovered this unfortunate additive to their caffe latte was conscientious enough to warn other unsuspecting victims of the dangers that lurk in this particular coffee dispenser. Who says people don't care about others anymore?
