The Magical Fruit

The Oromo people would customarily plant a coffee tree on the graves of powerful sorcerers. They believed that the first coffee bush sprang up from the tears that the god of heaven shed over the corpse of a dead sorcerer.

Is there a way to buy milk with any of these flavors and sugar already in it?

It’s so simple for people to open the fridge and dump some International Delight creamer into their cup. I’m sure if there was a good alternative then a lot of people would do it. These creamers are no effort, no cleanup, cheap, and have a much longer shelf life than milk.

Well no. Is it that hard to add a spoonful of sugar if you need it, instead of pouring in some artificial palm oil, corn syrup based junk? You're killing yourself and the planet with this stuff.

What effort, cleanup, or cost is needed with milk and sugar? 🤣 I bet it's cheaper than creamer in fact.

I’m mostly referring to flavor. No one is buying these for “sugar + milk” flavor.

So buy real monin syrups that aren't so artificial tasting and live a tastier life! And stop pretending you like coffee 👀
