Coffee 2

From a Yahoo News story: “Folgers, Maxwell House, and Starbucks are America's best-selling ground coffees. but all three were iced by Eight O'Clock Colombian coffee in our taste tests. As for Starbucks, it didn't even place among the top regular coffees and trailed among decafs.” This deal is from Consumer Reports. Who are they? As far as I’m concerned, Starbucks is the best, followed closely by Mickey D’s. I might not know anything about coffee, but I know what I like.

Coffee

Might this be true? From a recent news story: "Drinking coffee may do more than just keep you awake. A new study suggests an intriguing potential link to mental health later in life, as well. A team of Swedish and Danish researchers tracked coffee consumption in a group of 1,409 middle-age men and women for an average of 21 years. During that time, 61 participants developed dementia, 48 with Alzheimer’s disease. After controlling for numerous socioeconomic and health factors, including high cholesterol and high blood pressure, the scientists found that the subjects who had reported drinking three to five cups of coffee daily were 65 percent less likely to have developed dementia, compared with those who drank two cups or less." I drink coffee because I like it. Of course, I either drink McDonald’s, Gevalia, Starbucks, Folger’s, or Maxwell House, but not for their medicinal value.
