Are you a coffee lover?

[Sergius]

No. I drink tea.

I never drink coffee (neither do I like mocca chocolate), I think the term negro sweat adequatly describes what I think of this sludge. I only like tasty beverages like tea (with sugar, without milk) or sometimes chocolate.

If you would offer coffee to one of our forefathers he would think it would be digestive sludge from the soakaway- actually Europeans, especially in the north, evolved digestive encymes to digest dairy products.

I do not like coffee. I like tea (black, no sugar) and hot chocolate (i like to make it on the stove out of chocolate and cream. so bad, i know !).

In Russia tea is by far more popular than coffee. I think, it's as popular as in England. Interesting that if you go to the west or to the north, the situation is different. I guess in Southern Europe people prefer coffee. And the situation in northern Europe is similar. I've heard Finns are one of the biggest coffee consumers in Europe.

Totally right, at least in the spanish case. Here it's quite usual to drink coffee at least three times a day: in the breakfast, during the morning break at work (at about 10) and after lunch. Personally, I drink coffee and herbal teas (red tea, camomile tea, mint).

Cheese is a blessing. But as a pleasure, not as a good nutrition.

I don't know. What would peasants eat over here? A soup, some bread, maybe a raw onion and a little piece of cheese for the luckiest.

And they would hunt their own lunch while we go to our local supermarket.

It is funny that tea isn't as popular in France as it is in England. Afterall we had a colony is SE Asia (Cochinchine).

Yes, I am addicted. It´s not really good to be addicted, but coffee seems rather harmless.

Swedish snus and coffee are my main addictions.

Indeed. But I get women anyway.

But seriously I have tried to quit, but it´s hard. I wan´t to try stop using it, because it´s really nothing but a totally unnecessary expence.

Maybe, I´m not sure. But it´s not in Sweden.

Forbidding snus in Sweden would be like forbidding beer in Germany or tea in England. Revolt would follow!

[Theobald]

Coffee addict here. At lest 7-8 once a day. But I can't say I like it, it's just compulsory when you don't sleep much. As a matter of personal tastes I prefer milk and cocoa (Carnyx ).

[meadhbh]

I drink coffe but I don't think I'm an addict. I can stop any time I want.

[Numi]

Answering the question,I must confess I am a coffee addict but that's because of my low blood pressure(hypotension) and that's why I just can't do without about a litre of coffee a day.I don't think it will destroy my bones since I'm also fond of milk and dairy products
