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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
