Coffee vs. Tea

[Captain Vegetable]

The people I work with go on coffee runs and it does seem like they are addicted to the stuff. Sometimes when I feel really run down I'll get some but it's so very rare. I don't understand why people drink coffee and fucking put so much other shit in it. When I drink coffee I drink it with no sugar no cream. Like it was meant to be.

Where are you from? Because if it's anywhere in the US, then that's HARDLY "how it was meant to be."

But good luck choking down your next disgusting cup of bitter brown-water.

Coffee and tea all day every day here.

I get them both out of the vending machine across the street from the school, it's beautiful.

I drink tea pretty frequently, but only in the evening - like with dinner or while I'm writing or something. Trader Joe's has this orange spice flavor of rooibos, which is the best tea, although not technically tea. EDIT: Forgot to add that jasmine tea is the best with dinner. Rooibos is for night time since it has no caffeine.

I can't get into coffee. Because of that, I can drink a glass of orange juice or apple juice in the morning and it has the same effect on me. I'm glad for that, too, because one of my coworkers is like this worn-out depressed slug when he's not on a coffee or Red Bull high.

Red Bull WORKS. That said, I usually stick to 3-5 cups of black coffee a day. Sugar, creamer, pfft.

English Breakfast Tea is quite good, also.

Coffee here. I got hooked on it when I was working overnights.

You think that when coffee was first discovered they put sugar, cream, hints of cinnamon or hazelnut into it? Think again buddy, people drink something that they can't stand the taste so they spice it up. IMO that's stupid, if you don't like the taste why the fuck do you drink it. I do like the taste of black coffee and I know I'm hopped up on caffine and not on an included sugar rush that'll leave me feeling even worse when it's over.

Why eat bread when you can just grind up some wheat and eat flour?

Okay that one makes no sense cause you make pasta the same way. You should say why eat a sandwich when you can just eat bread.

BTW .. Black coffee is the right way. Same way as not adding milk to Earl Grey tea or any tea for that matter.

[Thief Silver]

There is no right way. The right way is the way that tastes best to you.

YOu may as well tell Military men that Ketchup on everything is the wrong way.

[Calliander]

Then he could have said that, as well. The example works. But anyway, they probably didn't use as much to make their coffee back in the day so they probably didn't need sugar or milk or anything.
