Guilty Pleasures

What’s your favorite guilty comfort food?

Mine is General Foods International “Coffee” mix.  Let’s just get this out of the way, it’s not coffee.  Even though it contains coffee, it bears no actual resemblance to that which you might think of as coffee, as one might say, it’s a drink not quite, but almost entirely unlike coffee.  Its primary ingredient is sugar, followed by non-dairy creamer.

I’m a serious coffee snob.  I’m the target audience for espresso flights at miserably overpriced yuppie restaurants.  There was a time when I’d order coffee fresh from my favorite east coast roaster via express mail, and when I wasn’t doing that, I’d drive an hour and a half each way every week to buy fresh beans from a local place.

…and yet I love this godawful stuff that poses as coffee.  I’ve got a cup of it right now.

…yeah, I dunno either.
