1. Folgers tastes more like fresh coffee
where Maxwell House adds a nutty, cooked coffee taste to the mix somehow.

28. Yea, I vented here in teh Lounge
and at the time it felt good, dangit. ;)

Now I feel like I need to keep everyone up to date because it does read like it may be dangerous. Well, it is in a way, but I've been in worse situations. I'm handling it well, and all is going well.

Thanks for asking :)

3. Neither.
I'd rather not drink coffee than have to drink one of those. I'm spoiled.

42. Why not Chock-ful of Nuts?
Either that or Eight O'Clock was my first cuppa! I'd have to go with Folgers--crystals, Instant. Shucks, now that my Italian husband has spoiled me to drinking *good* coffee, if I gotta go back, I'm not putting that middle-shelf stuff in my expensive machine! I'm just gonna swirl those crystals in with my hot tap water. And a little Equal packet I swiped from the Mc'D's. And my non-fat powdered milk sprinkled in.

43. read down further below for Sebastian Doyle's comment --
nothing wrong with any of these...the day may soon come when any of us will be grateful for anything that closely resembles a coffee bean....

chicory...deal with it.

31. Not a coffee drinker, but what I have in the house is fair trade.
Equal Exchange. I'm annoying in my progressiveness.

32. Nope and nope
Yuban Dark Roasted

love you to pieces, TA, but Yuban is the only coffee for me...unless it's a great bean from Java Dave's or Seattle's Best.

39. I prefer whole beans when possible, but if I gotta buy ground, it's something in a metal can
I won't reward Folgers or Maxwell house for switching to petroleum based plastic containers. Give me the Yuban dark roast over either of those (It still comes in the can)

44. Folgers ...

... unless I'm doing a Civil War reenactment and want to go for realism and have my coffee taste of burnt chicory. Can't beat Maxwell House for that authentic, mid-19th century made from whatever crap we could find taste! :)
