claim: A man claimed drinking Starbucks' Unicorn Frappuccino "made him gay."
origin: On 19 April 2017, Sad Flag published theÂ claimÂ that a Queens, New York, man blamed Starbucksâ€™ Unicorn Frappuccino for a changing his sexual orientation: < Charles Woodson, age 43, is claiming that a beverage he ordered at Starbucks has turned him into a homosexual. Woodson claims that he was dared to try the new Unicorn Frappuccinio from fellow co-workers and now believes that he is in fact gay. â€œMy construction buddies dared me to try it and I did, it looks like itâ€™s a drink for daisies and believe me it is. As soon as I drank it I felt a difference in my body, I saw an attractive gentleman in the store and thought, wow Iâ€™d love to get up in that!â€ said Woodson â€¦ Woodson is preparing to sue the Starbucks company for this whole ordeal and is looking for a settlement in the range of $10 million dollars. â€œItâ€™s not fair yah know, tough guys canâ€™t enjoy a beverage like that without being called gay and then something like this happens.â€ said Woodson[.] > The claim was popular on Facebook in late May 2017, but there was no truth to it.
