Funny thing: it smells so good when freshly brewed, but the taste? :bleh:
guess it gives you smell of morning time, add that with the smell of bacon, the taste of coffee, an aquired taste, really.
I don't really drink coffee too much, once in a very long while. I don't see how people can be come addicted to it, it is so not good for your in large quantites. Those ice coffee's and other drinks available at Mitsuwa and Marukai market, now those are good, but sweetened coffee drinks that are cold. :thumbsup:
I can't drink coffee. Its gross :bleh: . I drank a cup for the first time in my whole life a year and I half ago. I was trying to stay awake in my psychology class and so I drank coffee (and it was gross). I couldn't sit still all class period and I had a comment for everything that the prof said that morning. After class I memorized 3 chapters full of info in my Ecology book...got an A on the test later that day. I was wired all day and it made me feel extremely hyper and weird. I'll never drink the stuff again :shakehead: ....but at least I got an A on my test :metaldevil: .

Heh, my only encounter with coffee is similar: I decided to have a cup during a college seniors party (20+ years ago :sweat: ) and it was awful.... "Why do people drink this crap?!" I said. :hehe:

Like I said, the stuff smells great when brewing or in the grinder, but one sip and :bleh:
Coffee. Air. Same thing. Can't live without either.
Candy for me, when I was a very little kid, was my Grandmother dipping a sugar cube into her black coffee. The sugar would suck up the coffee, turn that beautiful mocha brown, and just before it started to break up and disolve, she'd pop it in my mouth. Gooooood stuff.
By first grade my Dad would let me dunk a buttered Kaiser roll into his morning coffee. (He used milk in it. I never understood why.)
First sign that you'd moved from the little kid's table to the grown-up's table was the first time Mom poured you a cup of coffee after dinner, and let you join in the conversation.
By the way. Trying the different varieties is great. My aunt worked for one of the biggest coffee importers in Manhattan, and she was always bringing all these different beans and blends over to the house.
But in a pinch, there's nothing wrong with folgers.
One quick note: as much as I like coffee, I think the Starbuck's fad is ridiculous. Their coffee sucks, and it's overpriced. I went into one once... I'll never go back.
Tea? Waste of a cup. Green tea, black tea, tea bags, flaked tea... I've been talked into trying dozens of kinds of tea.
Much like BMW's response to coffee, I think it smells great. But the taste is insufferable.
And man, I hate having to try to clean out the cups and tea pots after friends come over and I have to make it. Nothing stains like tea.
Coffee! I got addicted to that when I was like 2/3 yrs old :hehe: My gramma soh bad she gave me Coffee and I kept asking for more, would wke up early and ask my gramma to make me coffee then when I got kinda older I made my won coffee would make one for her tooh :mrgreen: now and days...

That's exactly what happened to my little bro and my grandma. Except coffee is good for asthma, which the little turd has, so that's what happened. He's only 1 year younger than me.
