Multiple Choice: Caffeination Situation

A couple of months ago I was at a team lunch with our group's director and several peers.  Workday caffeination  practices came up in the discussion (such a seemingly innocuous topic); I made the mistake of asserting that Starbucks is coffee for people who like lattes, and is terrible without all of the milk, syrups, creams, and other accoutrement.  This was not a popular assertion.

Is it better to:
  1. Claim to like Starbucks because that's what your superiors like (and even though you can rationalize spending $100 on a pair of shoes you cannot bring yourself to spend $4 on a cup of coffee)
  2. Defend your longtime love of Dunkin' Donuts, because even though they don't sell it in your blessed state, that's what America runs on
