    I tried and gave up after a week. When I was younger I was putting 4 or 5 packets of sugar and worked myself down to 2 or sometimes 1 now so I guess I can probably get myself down to none.

    Same. Water for me.

    I eat my sandwich at my desk when everyone else drinks coffee.

    That's because coffee is for closers

    Black, but it wasn't always this way. When I went to various functions, I found it difficult to add sugar, milk and whatnot while holding onto the bunch of leaflets and other documents I would invariably get. It was much easier to just pour it black and move along.

    Eventually, I acquired a taste for it, to the point where any sweetener tastes weird. Occasionally I'll toss in a splash of milk if the coffee is especially bad, but for the most part it's straight up black.

    I don't think Robert E Lee would like it black.

    Never really got into coffee as a daily thing. Once in a while I'll drink a cup socially with 1 cream, 1 sugar.

    If I need a boost at work I pop an adderall (rarely more than once or twice a week, for the record).

    straight black with nothing in it. you actually taste the coffee and not all that creamer/sugar. now if the coffee is bad/old and im desperate, then maybe creamer but no sugar.

    no cream, a little sugar. about 3 big cups a day (9-10oz).

    The better the coffee, the less I care if it has any sugar. Don't mind if it gets cold in my cup, and / or don't mind if it sits heating until the afternoon when I have my last cup.
