O had read a few years back that it is still a crime in Ethiopia punishable by death to smuggle out any kind of coffee bean that is still alive.
They still have like 90% of the worlds extant undiscovered coffee species and don’t want anything else getting out.

I have two kinds ~ one is a Tasimo machine ~ makes lots of noise and requires you to press a button to fill it all the way up (otherwise the barcode on the ratpoison type containers with the coffee tells the machine what it is).
The other one uses all the standard pods.
I actually have 5 or 6 more of these things purchased earlier at a good "close out" price. I'm set for life.

"Costs a lot more to make it a pot at a time, and if you’re the only guy drinking the coffee that runs your price up over $1.00 a cup. NOT GOOD." That's a good point. However, just drink the whole pot like I do.

Don’t drink the stuff. Tried, but I just don’t like the taste.

Coffee is loaded with potassium and magnesium, two minerals that many Americans are deficient in.
And Americans get more antioxidants from coffee than any other source.

Oh and none of that french roast stuff either.
Burnt beans don’t make better coffee, just bitter.

I’d forget about coffee and keep a close eye on the futures for wheat and soybeans.

Coffee is second only to petroleum in world trade.
US consumers drink more coffee per capita than any other nation.
Granted, it is not _food_, but it is not an insignificant trade item.

Not in that order.
