Oh dear! I just about covered my computer screen with coffee reading the comments! [smiley=laugh4.gif] [smiley=laugh4.gif]

I LURVE coffee.  [smiley=badlove.gif] Coffee everything. I once had to go two days without coffee. Needless to say, I was not a happy bunny.

COFFEE...yes!   [smiley=2thumbsup.gif] [smiley=2thumbsup.gif]

I don't like coffee either but I do love the smell of it!

I am a tea drinker (without milk).

I can't stand coffee either; I don't even really like the smell of it.

I don't mind the smell of coffee, but I don't like drinking it and I don't care much for it as a flavoring. In fact, my mom is the only one in the family who drinks coffee--my dad hates it too, and my sister is pretty much anti-caffeine period. Even my husband doesn't like it! We all love tea, though (except my sis); even my mom says she would rather give up coffee than tea, and she didn't drink any during the two weeks they were visiting us.

Other than frappucinos from Starbucks, I don't like coffee or tea. I'd rather have hot chocolate if forced to drink something warm. I do love the smell of it though and walking into Starbucks always makes me happy. Luckily my boyfriend is the same. God help us when we have our own house and people visit, I don't know how to make tea or coffee.

I don't like coffee or tea and I can't stand the smell of either, although tea does smell a bit better.

The only thing with coffee in it that I like is tiramasu, and that's only when there is just the slight flavour so that you can't quite tell what the taste is.

DB loves tea, drinks several cups a day, and will buy a coffee once in a while. He keeps wanting me to try both.

I don't like coffee.  Never have, never will.  I am Cuban and cuban coffee is like jet fuel!  One sip and you'll be up for 4 days straight!  Most Cubans do like it but then there are the odd few.  I don't like American style coffee either, or any coffee for that matter.  You are definitely NOT alone!

I never liked coffee until about 10 years ago when i went to Italy and tasted real coffee!   Now i can't get enough, but i couldn't drink it the way most Americans do... in a big mug.  I like espresso, in a tiny wee cup -- hot, short, sharp... and gone in 60 seconds.   :)

I take it sweet if im just drinking coffee on its own, but if im having coffee with something sweet like cake or dessert, I like it black.

I dislike coffee. I've tried that whole "wake up in the morning and drink a cup of coffee" routine but the cup went to waste lol. I like the smell but I just don't like the taste. Infact I don't like ANYTHING coffee flavored either...ice cream, cake, cookies...NADA lol.

You arn't alone!

The ONLY tea I like is Arizona Green tea with honey in the big can!

OK, I'll admit it now.  I can't stand coffee flavoured anything.  I don't get it myself at all.

But Coffee itself is still da bomb :P

Karin, I refuse to make coffee for anyone! I used to make instant for DH before he became a coffee snob, but even then I always got it wrong!

I think you have to drink coffee to be able to make a good pot that would please people lol. I know I'd probably make a horrible cup as I have NO clue how much water or beans or whatever lol  :-\\\\

That's my conclusion!

I used to really hate coffee...even the smell. Then I went to work at my last job and everybody there drank coffee. My boss told me within 6 months she bet I would be drinking it too. I said no way would that happen. That winter was really cold and I didn't have any hot chocolate on hand so my boss told me she'd make a cup of coffee for me that she knew I'd like. Loads of sugar and creamer of course. Sure enough it wasn't too bad and I was a coffee drinker from that day on. I couldn't start my day at work without a cup. Now I work somewhere else and I'm the only coffee drinker in my office, so I only have coffee a couple of times a week, but still love it. I don't like coffee flavored stuff usually though. Tiramisu is the one exception.
