Caffeine pills. Coffee is bourgeois decadence. A machine dedicated to one drink? Having to ship beans halfway across the world? Burning down jungles just to grow beans with no nutritional value? Filters that are single use for every batch? Insanely wasteful and it makes you poop. Under communism every home will have a bioreactor with genetically modified caffeine producing bacteria.

True proles make cowboy coffee and just put it through a reusable mesh screen n drink thru the grit.

But coffee tastes good and what if the farmers like growing coffee? Just not the, ya know, slavery bits.

But coffee tastes good

after you brainwash yourself into tolerating it or pour a kilogram of sugar in it maybe.

It's probably the bitterness. Have you tried a light roast made cold brew style? Without heat there aren't as many tannins

why try something i don't like?

i also dislike the smell, and coffee flavor in desserts.

It's like someone telling me they don't like cocoa. I flat out do not believe you for a variety of reasons. I am denying your lived experience rn

[–] JohnBrownNote@hexbear.net 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

nobody reasonable drinks just cocoa in hot water like freaks do with black coffee.

[–] ProfessorOwl_PhD@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That is almost exactly how we started consuming cacao beans.

This just reminds me of the one good joke in the entire Assassin's Creed series, from AC2

Other Guy: would you like some coffee?

Ezio: what's coffee?

Other guy: it's a drink we got from Turkish traders. Try some

Ezio: hmmmm it's a little bitter. Have you considered adding sugar? Or milk?

Other guy, offended: I guess it's an acquired taste

Coffee actually can taste very very good as an auxiliary flavor in a dessert and while it is of course subjective, it is definitely not “self-brainwashing”, coffee cake is the shit
