This is like asking: People who eat food for the calories, why don’t you just eat dry primate food pellets?
Because there’s a big upside to enjoying the experience of drinking coffee with few downsides. If coffee was just caffeine dissolved in water it’d be a very different story
Personally I only care about calories, I’m on board for food pellets if they actually worked and were healthy.
You may be a robot in that regard but you’re clearly aware that people enjoy the taste of food and coffee, right?
That’s why I said for the caffeine and not who enjoy coffee.
So you’re really asking about people who dislike coffee but drink it regularly anyway for caffeine? Are there a lot of people in this situation?
Me, unfortunately. Never picked up the taste for coffee, but I accidentally got hooked on caffeine through energy drinks, which are way worse for you. Now I’m trying to acquire the taste for coffee at a late stage to wean myself off energy drinks.
