Grip Of Consumerism

If you go to a Starbucks to buy a beverage, you will be faced with numerous, mind-boggling choices. Oat or almond milk? Latte or cappuccino? Or is it frappuccino? Added sugar or sugar-free? Matcha or espresso? These are only a few of the examples. In fact, there are over 170,000 possible combinations of coffee and beverages in Starbucks. The number is dizzying. But it isn’t only for beverages. There are endless choices of processed foods in shops, as even potato chips come in a wide range of options. Supermarkets in developed nations have such a diverse and endless range of choices that it can befuddle the consumer.
