    "Is Starbucks really that popular or is that a Hollywood thing?"

    Idk what’s privileged about being aware the US has a ton of fast food and uses disposable cups, there is nothing unbelievable about a highly westernized ultra rich nation doing any of these things

    Or, I mean, simply having disposable cups. Disposable cups are quite common in developing nations as well - just look on the side of any highway. The only "American" thing about it is the ubiquity of the red color, which is simply a cultural phenomenon

    Why does "privelege" have to do with it?

    It's just simple ignorance on your part - you didn't realize what's commonplace to you isn't commonplace to someone outside the US, nothing more.
