I'm butting in. I actually don't like the taste of milk chololate...never did even as a kid and that included those Easter Bunnies..although I always bit the head off. I loved coffee when I first tasted it in high school..My family were tea drinkers which I like too and drink a cup of green tea daily and matcha tea before gym class (loaded with caffine). No sugar with coffee..just half and half and always honey with tea. Different buds ...don't subject yourself to anymore dark chocolate if you hate it but don't say "yuck" either.

@imallears Love your handle! It took me a minute to decipher it. So clever!
Always great to have someone else join our conversation.
I drink one coffee with milk, no sugar, in the morning, and I drink clear black decaf tea two or three times a day too.

@imallears, You and my older grandson must share DNA. If I'd not been present at his birth, I'd question if we brought home the "right" baby because from the get go, just the thought of anything chocolate makes our 15 yr old queasy to this day!

For years, I loved Halloween because that was the time to buy my year's worth of candy. Halloween became a favorite holiday for my daughter when this little trick-or-treater, turned over all of his gathered chocolates to her. At about 9 yrs, he "smartened up" and began suggesting that in return, it only seemed fair for her to exchange a few dollar bills for the chocolates. Maybe an investment broker in the works? smiles

Like you, Mary, I've enjoyed coffee all different ways and at present, it is with half & half. In TX, ordering tea at a restaurant meant the standard "iced tea". On my first trip to NYC, I was very surprised to order tea and be served hot tea. It was also a surprise to order water and it came with no ice. Added to the teas you mention, I additionally like Jasmine and other herbal teas but without sweetener.

Must be a difference in the type of caffeine tea and coffee have because if I drink coffee at night, I have trouble sleeping. Not the case with hot or iced tea before bed. Does this happen to you or others?
