Our long national nightmare is over: Starbucks' fake Pumpkin Latte Shortage has come to an end as the coffee shop chain assures ABC that distribution centers are now fully stocked again. A panic arose on Twitter last week after it was suggested that some Starbucks locations had run out of the mix for the popular seasonal beverage.

On top of that, Starbucks Public Relations Director Lisa Passe says "I can confirm that there are no actual pumpkin emergencies." No, in the event of an actual pumpkin emergency they would've sounded the emergency coffee alarm? Anyway, everyone can relax now.
