Bill and I tonight watched how it works on coffee as I'm sure you can tell by all the little coffee facts up above.  Most of them I had no idea.  I figured some of the numbers were huge but didn't realize that much was consumed everyday.  I have realized while watching this show is that I am not a true coffee drinker.  I like coffee a lot however I can't drink it plain I have to doctor it up.  I'm not to concerned with coffee itself. I'm not hard core like some people apparently.  However, I can tell if it doesn't taste good.  Still though I LOVE MY COFFEE EVERY MORNING even doctored up.
