Coffee is anti me
Same. I’ll admit I’ve never been much for coffee to begin with, but in the past, when offered, I’d have some to be polite. Today, though, coffee does unspeakable things to my insides that I try to avoid it at all costs.
What do you think it is? For me it just flushes my system and gives me a good wake up jolt in the morning. 1 cup or less.
Not sure. I don’t think it’s the caffeine though, because I drink other caffeinated drinks just fine.
I kept trying to get into coffee but like tea I just couldn’t. My mouth really dislikes both.
Imo you acquire a taste for it if you ever have a job that starts too early and has readily free coffee available.
Yeah, my mother told me she gained a taste for it in college. I just drank soda still, I never could gain the taste.
Maybe were it free…
You might have the genetics for hating it. I’m old AF meow and I never could Stockholm’s my way into liking it. It just tastes like bitter dirt water.
me too! I hate it! The only one I like is Mate tea that my ex introduced me.too. But I do use sugar.
Anti coffee != anti caffeine
I fucking love coffee (esp black and cold press) but I cannot drink it, it makes me feel like I’m going to die. I miss it so.
(To anyone thinking of saying “why not decaf”
NO, IT HITS WRONG. That’s why I don’t drink NA Beer or smoke movie cigs.)
I’m curious as to why.
Actual health concerns like heart palpitations, drinking a diuretic, or difficulty sleeping? Heck, just want to kick the caffeine addiction or cost?
Sure. Good idea to quit.
Quitting because of some bullshit misinformation like a colon cleanse or something? Whatever. (FTR coffee may offer some protection against colorectal cancer).
Coffee Stain on Teeths, bad breath, but most importantly, it saves money. In college is common to see people unable to focus without coffee, and crave constantly before a study session, I do wonder if the habit of drinking coffee could be harming the ability to focus without it
I’m sure there are a lot of studies about coffee, and I completely agree, that they improve focus, but the withdrawal could be more harmful to concentration than without it (e.g the person who doesn’t drink caffeine could had better baseline focus compared to folks on withdrawal)
I am for tea now
I have learned that SO MANY coffee drinkers don’t understand that certain teas have to be brewed at certain temperatures. They take green, black, white, jasmine and brew all of them into boiling water!
Anyways, I do not get this coffee vs tea feud. I drink it all, sometimes even in the same day, and I thank my ancestors for discovering leaf in hot water and bean in hot water both taste good.
Lol. It’s a joke. I drink both coffee and tea and enjoy both.
I think I lean slightly more towards coffee but not by much. It’s mostly because I like cold drinks and cold coffee seems more normal.
Yeah, so, coffee beans are not actually beans by the way. They’re the pit of the coffee berry.
Someone saw this:
…and decided absolutely not am I brewing a tea from that. I’ll pit them and then throw the pits into a fire and then I’ll brew a tea coffee with that.
Coffee: Because the burnt out crust of society needs burnt crustiness in their water.
