    1. “Waiter, how come this coffee taste like s***?”

      A similar subject was covered in a comic strip in the student newspaper while I was still in grad studies many years ago. The last panel had the line: “Why step in it when you can drink it?”

      But, to quote Nancy: eck!

      I guess it’s all for the bragging rights, just like those people who insist on eating puffer fish.

  1. Heard from a smiling California millionaire, “Wow, Clarice. This new coffee you bought is the Shit!”

  2. Looks like LA wants to take over from San Francisco as the shittiest city in America.

  3. The writer seems very unfamiliar with his chosen subjects(s), at least this time. The coffee cherry and its “seed” is normally swallowed almost whole by the civet in the wild but only at the peak of ripeness and the “bean” thus exits the animal still whole having only been exposed to its gastric processing. Since most coffee cherry bushes don’t have a sharply defined peak ripeness time stamp, there is no other economically feasible way to harvest all the most desirable fully ripe cherries in a short time period. Civets can handle that job on location but when kept in a lab with the feed stock hand picked and brought to them, that sounds a bit iffy.

  4. What was that goofy TV show?
    About dining from dumpsters by choice.
    Jim Jones showed how stupid and gullible people really are.
    “Drink the coolade”.
    For some reason the coffee as described brings to mind the old sarcasm about;”What do you give a man who has everything?”
    Answer;’Cyanide”.
    In hindsight,there is a cure for stupid.

    1. “It’s a bit nutty …” *cringe*
