I am huge coffee lover and I have tried to figure out what the rave it all McDonald’s coffee. I don’t seem to understand. It doesn’t seem like such great coffee. I mean, om the go and on the run, if I really want some coffee, I wouldn’t pass on it. But it surely is not on the top of my list.

@Mike – It’s still available! I just bought one last week. It’s really a good coffee. You should try it!

I’m not much of a coffee drinker but if McDonald’s Premium Roast Coffee is really THAT good, maybe I should try some. If it’s still available, that is. lol

hehe — that’s better than the one I heard the other day:

“I like my women like I like my coffee, ground up and in the freezer”

Horrible, yes, but I laughed.

Shawn, I feel for you not knowing if you’re OK with the fact that it’s from MacDonalds. I actually crave their sasuage biscuits from time to time, but that’s the only thing I will get from MacDonalds. (should there be an apostrophe in there? I’ll let MWT tell us)

And the rest of you, you can like or dislike my coffee all you want, but I’m the one who’s drinking it! I like good Kona, or Jamaica Blue Mountain, POR coffee (Plain Ole Regular), POR coffee with flavored creamer, flavored coffee beans that I grind, and flavored latte’ with frothed milk. My favorite latte’ was a Coco-van-car (my name) with shots of three flavored syrups, Coconut, Vanilla, and Caramel.

I like my coffee like I like my women, hot and sweet! If there’s some exotic flavor too, it’s all good!

Basically I see the shelter as one giant kitchen.

And Nathan is correct – I like my coffee to taste like coffee. Period. And the smell of ‘that hazelnut crap’ makes me want to kick something.

With all that coffee, I think we’ll need 12 bathrooms more than 12 kitchens.

I try to avoid caffeine, but I too love coffee. I abhor the flavored creamer stuff – it’s sugar, chemical flavoring and transfats, for goodness sake! I do, though, really like real half and half in my brew.

I haven’t tried McDs, because most decaf is putrid. The best for home brewing I’ve found recently is a regional Alaska brand – Kaladi Brothers Swiss water process decaf.

Hrm. But I like some of those flavored creamers… in the extremely occasional times when I actually drink coffee at all. (People who have watched me prepare my coffee have remarked “would you like some coffee with that sugar and cream?? o.O”) I like coffee-flavored stuff (candy, ice cream, yogurt, etc), but not the drink itself.

Monochrome: No no, I’m certain I like it… It’s that I’m not sure if I’m OK with that.

By: Janiece

Janiece — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 22:33:42 +0000

We don’t need 12 kitchens. We need one industrial sized kitchen and 12 “coffee stations.”

And yeah, “flavored creamer” and “flavored coffee” are the nasty.

By: Nathan

Nathan — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 22:22:38 +0000

And none of that hazelnut crap either.

Shawn and Nathan, please note I only pollute coffee if I have no alternative to coffee to drink. In the shelter, I promise no coffee pollution. And I’ll gladly make coffee for those who like it.

By: Nathan

Nathan — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 20:27:46 +0000

All right. Who’s gonna tell Jim we need like 12 kitchens in the bomb shelter?

So you drink 2 -3 cups of it a day but your undecided if you like it?
I think you answered your own question Shawn.

Actually, I’m not against additives to tea. Milk is only acceptable rarely (the cloves and cinnamon almost beg for milk) — it’s only coffee that must remain pure.

Random Michelle K — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 20:05:18 +0000

The you’d hate my tea. Dark strong tea steeped with clove and cinnamon with added sugar, and half & half.

Yummy!

I doth concur with Sir Nathan’s proclamation. Coffee may be sniffed or consumed, but not tainted with blasphemous “cream” or other such nonsense.

By: Nathan

Nathan — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 19:18:26 +0000

There was supposed to be a little ‘end pronouncement’ tag at the end, but Shawn’s blog didn’t like it, I guess.

By: Nathan

Nathan — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 19:17:24 +0000

Please allow me to clarify. I have no problem at all with folks who do not partake of coffee, thus no conflict with Scalzi or Michelle. It was the mention of the abomination that is ‘flavored cream’ that caused my objection. That’s just nasty and not to be permitted in my field of vision or upwind of me.

This is one of those subjects about which I am right and if you disagree with me it is because you are wrong, wrong, wrong.

By: Random Michelle K

Random Michelle K — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 18:35:04 +0000

I’m also in the no coffee camp.

Which you should be glad about for two reasons. 1) that leaves more for you and 2) You really don’t need me that wound up.

By: Shawn Powers

Shawn Powers — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 18:07:18 +0000

Fear not, Nathan, Vince will make our coffee — and not drink any. (Sniffs, as long as they’re not too creepy, are free)

And Scalzi can come. He won’t take any of my our precious bean juice…

By: MWT

MWT — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 18:05:13 +0000

What? Weren’t you the one who wanted Scalzi in the compound so he could write us more books? If so, you can’t toss out Vince on the grounds of coffee!

By: Nathan

Nathan — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 17:06:35 +0000

Vince, You’re a heathen. That’s all there is to it. Yer outta the bomb shelter!

For me, coffee is only good in the dead of winter with lots of flavored creamer when hot tea and hot chocolate are not available. I prefer my caffiene cold and fizzy.

However, I love the smell of freshly brewed coffee.

I’m not a good person to ask, I drink their unsweetened ice tea all the time. I don’t know it it is good, but I like it.

By: Shawn Powers

Shawn Powers — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 14:25:44 +0000

See — it causes me physical pain to buy coffee at McDonald’s. The thing is, it’s really good coffee.

Make sure it’s the premium roast stuff though, I’m not sure if it’s a nation-wide thing yet. (Michigan was one of the “trial” states at the onset of the switchover)

By: Nathan

I may be willing to try this. Back when I lived in Boston, a friend and I would take day-trips on the weekend to go skiing at Mt. Snow in Vermont (about a 3 hour trip). We never seemed to learn the lesson that stopping at Burger King just before getting onto I-91 was a bad idea. Their coffee tasted like boiled grass.
