Is that because you don't like the taste?
My wife loves the smell of freshly ground coffee, but hates the taste of
a good cuppa!
She says, "If only it tasted as good as it smells!"

I don't like the taste. Of coffee or toffee. Let's face it, for most people,
coffee is an acquired taste, anyway. I never acquired it. :-)
And the addictive properties of caffeine keep
you going back for more. Tea, that is...

Good pt. I've never liked colas either.

The following is from a Google search on cafffeine:
* Typical drip-brewed coffee contains 100 mg per 6-ounce cup.
* Typical brewed tea contains 70 mg per 6-ounce cup.
* Typical colas (Coke, Pepsi, Mountain Dew, etc.) contain 50 mg
per 12-ounce can. Things like Jolt contain 70 mg per 12-ounce can.
* Typical milk chocolate contains 6 mg per ounce.
* Anacin contains 32 mg per tablet.

Hope that aids your knowledge of both caffeine and green tea.
I just know you'll like the chocolate info! <g>

Thanks! I think it probably has too much caffeine then -- at least, for me.
