Starbucks? Overpriced swill.

Drink coffee. REAL coffee. Hot, black, STRONG in a well seasoned cup. Like the coffee one would get on the mess deck of a Navy ship.

THAT’S COFFEE.

I drink the best coffee in the world for less than a dime a cup at home. It is Vietnamese coffee sold at Dollar Tree prepared the Vietnamese(originally French, I’m sure) way. VN coffee is cheap because there is so much of it produced but it compares with Kona and Ethiopian. The reason Kona has come down so drastically in price is the advent of Vietnamese coffee on the market VN coffee is from the best growing conditions in the world. It is mixed into instant and store brands and has made them much less bitter than they once were because those use the cheapest coffee on the market.

Speaking of a naval ship,

This author has wasted his/her/its life. I mean seriously, there are about a few million people out there doing far more important things.

“Burned S***”

That’s what I’m told straight Starbucks tastes like. Never been there.

As for REAL coffee, I’m not a Navy man, but G.I. coffee boiled in a ten gallon kettle then ladeled into your canteen cup and drunk down while standing there shivering in the pre-dawn cold next to your tank....

That’s a real coffee experience, too.

;^)
