Starbucks Lattes Flavored with Semen? ‘Daily Show’s’ Jessica Williams Interviews a Believer
Have your Starbucks lattes tasted a little semen-y as of late? Well, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart has found a guy who believes he knows why – because they're using semen to flavor their lattes, allegedly. And, well, probably not really. Correspondent Jessica Williams hosted a segment on last night's episode that detailed the behind-the-scenes features of those famed Daily Show correspondent field pieces, proving that they're not as fake as many people think.
Williams began the segment with a couple of past Daily Show interviewees, from someone who equated President Barack Obama to Adolf Hitler (no, not Mike Huckabee) to a gun advocate. Both of whom were particularly pleased with their time on the Comedy Central series, and claim that they do not regret going on the first time.
In fact, both seemed to enjoy it so much that they agreed to a second interview. They even admitted that the editing did not make them look the fool. Perhaps they watched a different segment than the rest of us?
Anyway, back to the semen java...
Towards the end of the segment, Williams was speaking with Harlem pastor James David Manning. He admitted to having no issue with the prior Daily Show piece, in which he called Obama the next Hitler. In fact, he "doubled down" and referred to him now as the son of Satan. But that's not the interesting part...
"I think that Starbucks has recognized that the flavor of their lattes," he said, "they are using semen to make that latte more flavorful."
To confirm, Williams asked, "You think they're using semen to flavor their lattes?"
"I think so, yes."
As to what empirical evidence he has, well, he has none.
Jon Stewart's run on The Daily Show comes to an end this Thursday, Aug. 6.
