Family dramas can literally start from anything, even a Starbucks cup.
Starbucks is a coffee brand that every human on this planet loves. They are rated all around the world as the best coffee and drinks makers. And the customer service, well a lot of people debate it, is pretty decent as well. They can’t help it, they have way too much traffic, all the time. One great thing Starbuck does is allow everyone to their branches, even the pet animals. Yes, you can take your best friend to Starbucks with you and you can enjoy the deliciousness together. Starbucks has gone an extra mile to also make a special drink just for the dogs so while their powers enjoy their coffees, the doggos will also have something to drink. The special drink is known as a puppuccino. It is a cup full of whipped cream, served in a specialized pup cup (small size) and served to the dog. It is one of the most popular secret menu items that they have and not many know about it. Now, what happens if you give a puppucicino to a human? It’s a cup of whipped cream, basically, so the answer should be “nothing”. But, this little girl’s mother thinks otherwise.
In today’s Reddit story, we’ve got some proper family drama based on the puppuccino. A man took his niece out to Starbucks and she was very excited to have a drink there. He got a puppuccino for her which is also known as a Pup Cup. She ate the whole cup of whipped cream and was super excited to tell her mother all about it. When she arrived back home and told her mother that she had whipped cream at Starbucks, OP’s sister erupted. She took things the other way around and blamed her brother for treating her daughter like a dog by getting her a pup cup.
The rest, you will be hearing from OP himself as he asks the Reddit whether he did treat his niece like a dog by getting her a cup of whipped cream which Starbucks usually gives to dogs.

4. That’s nice. A cup full of whipped cream would definitely get anyone excited. The fact that they serve that specific item to dogs doesn’t really matter. At the end of the day, it’s just whipped cream.

5. The niece was happy, so it’s a win.

6. Any kid would be excited to tell their parents all about their day. So did Evie, as she mentioned the pup cup to her mother.

7. Uh ho…The mum took things the other way.

8. OP and niece decided to joke about it and let the matter slide as if it was nothing but the Mom had no plans of letting go of it.

9. Oh come on. Where did feminism come into this from? She thinks her brother actually considered her daughter a dog and that’s why he got her that drink.

10. Protective? It’s not like he fed her wet dog food or anything. It’s just whipped cream, woman.

11. I think we all know who was the AH in this.

I am sorry but is his sister a lunatic? No, seriously, how does that come under the umbrella of being protective? In the first place, he took her daughter out and made her day. Secondly, this resulted in his sister and her husband spending some free time together. And then he got her some whipped cream from Starbucks which she really enjoyed. Now just because the whipped cream is an item Starbucks created for dogs, doesn’t mean whipped cream is supposed to be served only the dogs. The girl loved it, so she is in no position to make an argument. The fact that the thought her brother thinks of her daughter as a dog is outrageous.
No, OP was NTA. And he doesn’t need to apologize to anyone for it. When I have kids, I would get them a pup cup every week. It’s just whipped cream, for god’s sake.
Here’s what the AITA community members had to say:
12. Cute until that lunatic woman decided to ruin everything.
