Coffee beans?
Do you have a particular region of coffee bean that you prefer?

Coffee beans aren't beans. They're seeds.

Jelly beans here. If given a gallon bag full of them I'll probably finish the entire thing in one sitting.

Coffee beans aren't beans. They're seeds.
Actually, the entire "bean" isn't a seed... the seed is inside the "bean"... so coffee beans are technically fruit!

(Would that mean that coffee is fruit juice?)

If it means that it's considered healthy to drink it, all for the best.

Sweet. I don't think I could ever work at a joerb that didn't have free coffee and tea. As for my work, we have a $2000 coffee machine which we don't have to pay to use, and it has like 20 different things it can make and I love it.

I drink tea most mornings. I only drink coffee on Saturday morning. My stomach just doesn't tolerate daily coffee drinking. That and I don't really need much caffeine.

That looks awesome. Gotta love variety.

I need at least 3 cups of coffee every morning if i'm going to be even half awake by noon... i feel pretty aeamic otherwise. or maybe a can of RELENTLESS usually does the trick. It's like Red Bull on 'roids
