    I think it is the principle that a business should be able to charge to recoup their costs.

    As if they’re so close to the line that adding an extra $0.02 to the cost of making that cup of coffee means they aren’t recouping the cost anymore?

    but the additional refrigerated space required, and the additional man-hours necessary to stock and use alternatives.

    As opposed to the refrigerated space and man hours they need to stock cow milk. I don’t see any extra cost here. The material itself, sure, but the space and manpower? No. Again, the actual increased cost is negligible. Spreading the cost over all sales would mean every cup of coffee costs another $0.01.

      Dude… just stop. You don’t understand the thin margins a small coffee shop operates under, and that is who this would destroy.
