    I know it's bad for me but around 2:30 I need a cup of coffee to keep me going the rest of the day. I get a mild cup with about 4-5 packets of sugar, 2 little cups of half n half, and 1 more mini cup of hazel nut creamer.

    If I have to use the giant sugar and creamer packages, I generally dump enough creamer to fill the top of the cup and then dump sugar for about 2 seconds.

    At that point, you can't even call that coffee. That's sugar milk with a little bit of color. Gross.

    I go with some milk in there and I'm good.

    Straight Black.


    I usually don't even need it but it passes time.

    1 cup=30 minutes

    Better than staring in space

    I mean sugar intake wise its still half what a can of coke and other sodas have so it's a little better. 2 of these cups aren't going to kill me every week, I just need it for the days I'm low on sleep or hungover. I can't stand the taste of coffee normally, any options to make it taste good without dumping on all the crap I do?

    1st cup = 1/2 Sweet and low Packet + 1 International Delight creamer (preferably Irish Creme)

    2nd cup = black

    Man up and learn to drink it black. It's much better for you that way.

    Suffer for two weeks of drinking it black and you'll learn to actually like it that way (so long as it's decent coffee).

    If it's just two cups a week like that you're alright...but every day would be bad. And just because it has "half of what coke has" doesn't make it even remotely better -- either way you're drinking a lot of sugar with no other nutritional value.

    Black

    Because it is free and no calories.

    Used to put liquid creamer in it. We also have a Keurig, which I usually make cappuccinos in the afternoon if no coffee is in the regular pots.

    no idea.

    When I first started drinking coffee in college I initially started by trying to cover up the taste with milk and sugar. I still didn't like it that much and just did it for the caffeine. one day I just got sick of adding all the stuff and drank it black. found I liked it better that way

    It's true, once you go black you never go back.
