I'll pass.

YUK!

Jamaica's Blue Mountain coffee

Tried it. Liked it a lot. But not at that price.

[Williams]

I don't know why, but I always question the value society places on things.

[Don Corleone]

Replacing "Whine" (sp) on the Liberal party circuit?

[RayChuang88]

In one word: NO.

I'd rather go to a local Peet's Coffee and get a half-pound of good Kona, Sumatra or Kenya AA coffee instead--at vastly lower prices!

[dfwgator]

Ok, here's the thing. Somebody had to be the first person who thought to themselves, "hey these mammal droppings would make excellent coffee."

[CarrotAndStick]

Ever had wine?

[Fester Chugabrew]

There is a paragraph about this in the recent edition of Ripley's Believe It or Not. Read about it for the first time last week. Well, the beans are "carefully cleaned." If we watched all our food from start to finish we'd be grossed out ten times over. "Do you know where hot dogs come from?"

[savedbygrace]

Civet droppings are found on the forest floor near coffee plantations. Once carefully cleaned and roasted, the beans are sold to specialty buyers.

Shouldn't there be a five second rule for the forest floor?

Saw a wino eating grapes once. I said, "Dude, you have to wait!" -late comedian

[EricT.]

I first learned about this watching a "CSI" rerun on SpikeTV.

[WestCoastGal]

I just read the first sentence and will say absolutely, positively no way Jose! LOL

I love Illy coffee.

[NaughtiusMaximus]

I'm trying to train my cat to eat coffee beans. Will keep you liberals posted.

My Hungarian mother-in-law had Columbian coffee and Lucky Strikes for breakfast every day for 60 years. She lived to be 82.
Coffee and cigarettes, breakfast of champions!

"Do you know where hot dogs come from?"

They contain 'everything but the squeal,' I believe. ;)

I'll pass on this, too. Coffee we had in Hawaii was awesome, too. Not as good as the Jamaican Blue, but delish nonetheless.

What's that chicory/coffee blend here that Freepers have talked about before?

[Kaslin]

Me too

[Kaslin]

good point

[oblomov]

I would try it. Cheese, beer, and Pu-erh tea undergo similar fermentation processing.

[CarrotAndStick]

Lol!
