I think good coffee tastes awesome. Coffee flavored ice cream tastes awesome. I think you just need to acquire a taste for it. Once you acquire a taste for it it can taste very good. You might start off drinking Starbucks type drinks, like Carmel Frappuchinos, or Mocha Frappuchinos, which taste more like a milkshake, but with some coffee flavor. Or coffee ice creams. The coffee flavor isn't as strong and bitter and you can start to acquire a taste for it. With time you will crave a stronger and stronger cofffee flavor. I enjoy making French Roast (a dark roast) in a French Press. The result is a very dark and strong coffee. Tastes awesome. :) I get beans from a local roaster so I know they are freshly roasted. Then the trick is to use the beans within a week of opening the package, and grind them just before brewing the coffee.

Also drinking coffee in the right amounts has shown to be good for your health. They are finding more and more benefits from coffee all the time.

I've drank coffee since I was a kid, if you drink decaf, you're not gonna get the jolt caffeine has! I suggest you try both coffee and decaf and taste the difference yourself! It'll be aggravating just to tell them.

Yes, probably so, but a lot of people either screw up by not knowing the right amounts or thinking that the wrong amounts is right, or ignoring that because of their craving/addiction. I'm talking about people who replace their drinking water with coffee altogether. It's like every cup of liquid that they drink everyday has to be coffee. Hmmm...

I can deal with Frappuchino's, and that's about it.

Mostly like you said, coffee is a "Cool person thing to do."

Yeah...I also know that sounded gay.


You guys are all real swell.

Put correctly, regular internet usage sounds like a drug addiction. Lay off the allusion already; yes caffeine is addictive, but not all addictions are equal.

Coffee is good as long as you add creme and sugar to it. Also, coffee is only unhealthy if you drink large amounts of it, you'll never drink too much coffee unless you were intentionally trying to make yourself sick.

Hehe, I never said all addictions are equal. If I did, and I forgot, quote me. But most addictions are bad.

You didn't say it, you insinuated it.

Wquating caffeine addiction to drug addiction is a major overstatement.

I never knew Caffeine could cause hallucinations. I drink it cause, well, I tend to get a headache if I don't have a coffee, or an energy drink like RedBull. Interesting none the less.

It is an overstatement to equate (wquate) Caffeine addiction to drug addiction? But caffeine=drug. There is no denying it.

Quote from Site 1
:For those who love coffee, the taste is often cited as the reason for the "addiction" and the use of that word does not imply anything like a drug addiction. However, try to take away someone's coffee abruptly and chances are they will experience withdrawal symptoms (2).

Quote from Site 2
:...caffeine is arguably the most robust form of drug self-administration known to man

Quote from Site 3
:Caffeine is the world's most popular drug

So:

caffeine=drug
caffeine addiction=drug addiction

The difference between caffeine addiction and other drug addiction is just how the addict looks like and behaves.
