Am I the oddball because I don't like coffee? Is there anyone else who does not like or prefer coffee?

[CoolCatMar1]

I am more of a tea person...

[Rockstarrrrr]

Lol me too... I never understood why people like it that much... And when I sometimes try it but with a lot of sugar people give me the look xD

[jshm2]

Yeah well you either like coffee or tea. Few do both.

[DizzyDesii]

I drink it maybe once every 3-5 years. I dont care for the after taste. I can only drink it with a drop of milk and a shitlod of sugar. Literally i need to see the sugar still stuck at the bottom of the cup after drinking it 😂

[DizzyDesii]

I only like tea if its ice cold sweet tea. But tea makes me have to pee so im not big on it anymore

[DizzyDesii]

I prefer “drank”

[QuietRunner]

not all of those are "drank"

I see only one orange "drank" and no purple "drank"

[DizzyDesii]

@QuietRunner “drank” down here is any soda beverage

[QuietRunner]

@DizzyDesii I learned something new. Those are sodas to me, "drank" is something specific

[DizzyDesii]

@QuietRunner i type soda out here but no one actually says soda in person here. They either call the beverage by the name on the can or say “drank”

[xJayleenx]

Me too

The raw beans smell amazing, but something about brewed coffee, I just never got the appeal. So I’ve still never even had a sip of coffee in my life. Honestly, no disrespect to anyone, but it seems like such a crutch or a dependency for most people. I just never wanted to become one of those people who “can’t do anything until I’ve had my coffee.” I don’t view it as particularly harmful or anything like that, but it just seemed like one of those things where I’m going to have to pay $5 just to wake myself up in the morning. I also just don’t really give a fuck if I’m sluggish, I’m not living this life for anyone else, haha, if my employer or whoever thinks I’m sluggish then they can either love it or kick rocks. I’m not here on this planet to impress anybody, lmao.

I am 62 and have never really liked coffee, but the last year I have been drinking it to help motivate me at work and I is helpful as long as I don't over due it. I now have started to aquire a taste for it if it has Carmel, chocolate and cream. These new fandango coffees are pretty tasty.

[anon171999]

Nope, coffee is fun to drink, however it has too many negative side effects.

It causes me to shake, feel erratic, dehydrates my body, and causes painful bowel movements.

Matcha tea is much more enjoyable. No negative side effects. It makes me happier, feels good in my body, and helps me with constipation.

I tried cacao powder for the first time today, I really enjoyed that too. So I'll probably replace matcha tea with that for a few weeks.

I was in band in high school and we played at lots of football games. Cold and often foggy, it felt like I was going to freeze. Only hot drink available was coffee. That is where I forced myself to drink it, then acquired a taste for it. These days, my long working hours force me to drink coffee to stay awake.

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

Coffee is very much an acquired taste. One I refuse to get for myself. If you want to be more of a coffee person, you can try what my brother did when he was trying to like coffee.

You have to drink one black cup of coffee. All the way down to the bottom.

In comparison to the black, burning bitterness. Every latte you ever have from that point on is going to taste a lot better.

[NathanDavis]

I'm not into either coffee or tea... especially as hot beverages

but I can have some ice mocha once in a long while

although, I've always find the aroma of a great cup of coffee to be incredibly appealing, I do not enjoy the taste of it, lol

[DizzyDesii]

I dont really drink coffee but I literally walk in Starbucks acting like i forgot something just so i can walk out with the smell of coffee on my clothes 🤣 The aroma smells so dang good haha

[NathanDavis]

@DizzyDesii lmao... it really is that good

[DizzyDesii]

I’d buy a coffee perfume 😍😁

[DizzyDesii]

*coffee scented

[Sparkie460]

@DizzyDesii that would be some expensive perfume like their coffee. It's so over priced

[DizzyDesii]

@Sparkie460 i’d never buy their coffee but i would pay like crazy for that perfume 🤣

[Sparkie460]

@DizzyDesii even if I could afford it I wouldn't buy their coffee.
Just make a cup at home and bathe in it. Lol

[DizzyDesii]

@Sparkie460 i dont want my coochie burnin 🤣 I’ll wait for the perfume

[Sparkie460]

You'd definitely taste of delicious coffee. Lol

[DizzyDesii]

i mean it does go good with all this caramel

[Sparkie460]

Yummmmmmy

Until a few years ago, I rarely drank coffee, and preferred tea. Then I was introduced to a machine that ground the beans and made coffee, and now I have a cup of coffee for breakfast every day... plus occasionally, a cup of tea.

So NO, you're not an oddball.

[Sour-rose]

Oddball? It's called having a preference. What, old tom at your job said you're a freak for not liking coffee or somethin'? Because if he did, remind him he's old and he's the reason we can't have nice things in the future.

[AmyHew1tt]

I am totally a tea person. Coffee has never been my thing.

[CoolCatMar1]

Understood

[bean2k21]

Americans throw tea in the ocean. We do not want or need stuff grown in China and India, and then taxed by the British. Furthermore, it's too relaxing and not conducive to aggressive corporate behavior. Our Colombian friends make us coffee, and that is why Americans are smarter than everyone - coffee.

[bigpauly]

I don’t like coffee either. But we probably are in the minority on that front.

[CoolCatMar1]

Yes I am sure

[CoolCatMar1]

Most people I say this to say that it's weird

[bigpauly]

Yes. And they get weirded out and upset when I don’t have coffee when they stay over at my place, lol.

[CoolCatMar1]

Hahhaha yes. I always order mikshakes, smoothies, cocktails and cold drinks LOL

[bigpauly]

Lmao same. I thought it was natural to prefer cold drinks

[CoolCatMar1]

Hahaha

[Little_Bumblebee]

I don't like coffee at all. Not as a drunk and not as a taste in other edibles etc either.

I only drink tee when I'm sick basically.

And on general I don't really do warm drinks.

[jennifer_bloom]

I drink coffee for psychological and metabolic reasons and because it’s a calorie free drink but if I was drinking for taste, I would choose a juice or a tea or a liquor

[TrueConfection]

I was a tea person until my late twenties. I started drink coffee when I had my 3rd child and have been hooked ever since. I still drink tea in the evening.

[Cassie88]

I like tea and coffee. I guess many people don't like it because you really do need to put both sugar and milk in it, otherwise it really does taste awful.

[Chazmatazz269]

I don’t much like coffee, especially naturally. I don’t much like tea either though. I do drink more coffee than tea. My experience suggests it’s more versatile as well as more popular.

[UniquelyBasic]

I shouldn't say I hate it because I've maybe had a sip of coffee when I was really young, so I don't really know but I have no desire to drink any in the future.

[Vikkrram]

I didn't even drink tea or coffee. Tbh i drank tea I would say 2-3 years back and coffee around 7-8 years.

[Daniela1982]

I don't drink coffee. I prefer hot or iced tea myself. Otherwise, I may drink a Zero Sugar Pepsi.
