lol....I’ve been drinking coffee since I was 5. That was when my mother first gave it to us, heavily laced with cream and sugar. Forty-six years later I will still drink it with cream and sugar but only in Christmas Season. Once January rolls around I’m right back to straight black coffee. I can drink it any way it’s served to me but black is how I’ve taken it for years. Lot of graveyard police shifts will certainly alter your coffee tastes...
Since 5?
Reminds me of the Lady who would return her grandson to the mother who put her son through a horrible divorce. Just before dropping him off at 10 pm or so, she would give him a coke and candy bar for dessert, knowing he’d keep that woman awake for hours.

No muss, no fuss, instant gratification.

In my Navy years (SSN) we got our coffee out of a funky chest-high stainless steel tower that held an upside-down jar of Taster’s Choice freeze-dried crystals. You’d push a button and the coffee station would whirr-whirr-whirr some instant coffee into your cup, then you pressed another button for hot water. If you can get used to drinking that crap (and I drank a lot of it) you can get used to drinking ANY kind of coffee! By comparison, Folger’s is gourmet.
