It sounds like the "discovery" in Ethopia or Kenya as the case may be in the 8th century was actually a "rediscovery" of something developed in Ancient Egypt.

This would make sense considering that the world went into a Dark Ages after the collapse of the Ancient Egyptian Empire much as it did after the collapse of the Roman Empire.

Pure Kona coffee is good when brewed properly, adjust scoops, use chilled water, serve FRESH. Another Hawaiian coffee, grown just south of the Kona region called Ka’u coffee is as rich & full flavored as Kona with less ‘complaints’ of bitterness.

Luck to US all.

A family member brought the Jamaican back from Jamaica. I think it was genuine. :-)

Check. You thought it was just "good"? Sigh.

If you have a dented can store in your area check it out, that is where I get most of my espresso. They generally have both cans and vacuum packs of the latin brands(Cafe Bustelo, Pilon, etc) these are stronger than European brands. On rare occasions I have found Illy and Lavazza (italian). As long as they are still vacuum sealed they are good, I have had Italian espresso many years after expiring, I could not tell any difference.

China already processing American wild caught salmon & cod.


Yes. I see it all the time. I always look on the country of origin and if it says China, I put it back in the store freezer. I refuse to buy it.

I am amazed how many people will buy fruits and vegetables from places like Mexico, Chili, etc., when there is a good USA alternative. I’ll see tomatoes from Mexico and then some from USA. How could anyone with 1/2 a brain pick up the ones from Mexico? Are the that clueless to the sanitation conditions in some of these other nations?

Besides, if I can help the American farmer, I will surely do that every time vs. helping some Chinese or Mexican farmer dumping products over here.

>>I remember Postum. Haven’t heard that name in 50 years at least.

You can still get it on Amazon- 8oz for between $16 and $20.
