Few weeks ago, my friend and I decided to meet at Starbucks but I was a bit early so decided to order and wait for him. I'm not a coffee person but no big deal for me if we're meeting in a coffee shop cause you know, Starbucks (like other shops) have non-coffee drinks. But i felt awkward when I asked the cashier for a hot choco - some people in that shop looked at me. No over reactions, but i feel like they were surprised with what i ordered.

I wouldn't care one bit, nor do I know anyone who does.

The only time I notice someone's order is if it's ridiculously elaborate. Like I doubt you're actually interested in drinking this but abusing a worker for content or entertainment. Otherwise yeah I not only don't care I probably won't even notice.

Moreover if I'm in "coffee person" mode I have a little list of cafés I go to. To me judging your order at Starbucks would be like judging your order at McDonald's. None of this stuff is good so I can't really be elitist that you ordered fish instead of a burger, we're just here for convenience.
