Starbucks-PlentaStarbucks announced today that it will be introducing 2 new cup sizes in the U.S. and Canada this fall. Called the Plenta and Micra these cup sizes were supposedly a result of some customer requests.

From the Starbucks website:

Derived from Italian word for plentiful or small, the Plenta™ delivers coffee lovers record amounts of the world’s finest coffee beverages while the Micra™ delivers a quick and satisfying morsel of goodness.

The Plenta would be for serious coffee drinkers as it is about the size of a movie theater popcorn bucket. The Micra looks like it’s about the size of one of Starbuck’s sampler cups.

You can see it for yourself at the Starbucks website:

At $2.42 for a Venti, if you do the math the Plenta would run you about $15.49.

Not to mention you would probably die from a caffine overdose.
