ever think about coffee?

Ohh snap! It's another post about COFFEE! I'm sorry, its just such an amazing little drink that tastes so good! 

So yes, I am thinking about it (because I need some right now!) And I had to share these fun facts about coffee with you...

-People who drink coffee are less likely to commit suicide than people who don't. 

-The average American drinks 3.4 cups of coffee a day (bummer, I'm average...) 

-37% of US coffee drinkers use milk and sugar. 21% drink it black!

-In the 1820's a temperance movement tried to ban coffee...and almost succeeded! Ohhh.m.g. 

- Coffee beans aren't beans, they are fruit pits. Thus coffee is the most consumed fruit in the USA. 

-Why isn't iron added to milk? Well...because Iron-fortified milk turns coffee green! 

-When coffee first arrived in Europe it was called Arabian Wine (for some reason, this sounds like a "Cash Cab" question) 

-The French writer Voltaire drank 70 cups of coffee a day. 

-Coffee DOES not cause high blood pressure. 

Now, we both can say we have thought about coffee! xxo 

ps: ever think about buying fair trade coffee? humm, think about it! It's a good thing.
