Did you actually read what I wrote??? I said that the coffee was good for that price range. I also never said that it compared with coffee in Europe.

I know you didn't compare it to european coffee.. I never said you did. I just asserted that people who really know good coffee would spit that crap out on the spot.

YOU misunderstood ME. See what happens when you drink cheap coffee? It really messes with the senses. Very Happy

Actually, their coffee is really good and they sell 50 cups of coffee for every 1 cup that Starbucks sells.


while i'm not about to argue the quality of coffee with a guy by the name of 'coffeeman', i would like to say you'd be hard pressed to find an Italian or French national who digs the slop.

if you've ever been to a cafe in either of those countries, you'd be drinking your words.
yes, the price is right, but you get what you pay for...


I read the article about this, and it mentioned that Tim Horton's was previously owned by Wendy's. Shocked

And for years I have been listening to Canadians go off about Tim Horton's coffee. Confused

No.

It had been part of Wendy's for a while but that is over.
