"Starbucks is, without a doubt, the biggest coffee brand in the world. Not only does it have more than 40,000 stores globally, but it also sells products in more than one million retailers around the world. Often, the chain gets it right.

More than 25,000 cases of bottled Vanilla Frappuccinos were recalled due to glass contamination.
