That looks quite interesting. I'm always looking for good tea and so far the best Earl Grey I've had is Sainsbury's finest but it's quite expensive.

Keeping on the coffee topic. I grind and roast my own beans (oo-err missus). I use a hot air pop-corn popper on green beans and then grind them with my blender and bang them into my Bialetti. Produces very good espresso. One of those in the morning sets me up for the day.

but worse than Honeydew and even the Newman's Own offered at McDonald's (both of which can be had for the same pricepoint as a bag of DD's grog.
The coffee they use to get was bottom of the barrel store brand. They wouldnt even get 8 oclock bean. We got some bulk bullocks that tasted vile. Dunkin Donuts is my favorite right after Waffle House. Nothing beats fresh Waffle House coffee.

Just because it was brought up, god I hate Starfucks.

Tastes like dirt. Burned dirt.

Even their hot chocolate sucks.

Starbucks is horrid. The only reason it's popular is because it's trendy. People who 'like' starbucks don't like coffee. Simple as. They drink it as a status symbol and acquire the taste. Good coffee does not need to be acquired.

Gotta agree with this. I've had it once, and it tasted like the result of someone trying to cover up the taste of piss with mass amounts of sugar and other sweeteners. The stuff is god awful for you, too.
