    The first time I put a sachet of equal into my coffee to see what the fuss was about, i almost fell off my chair on how sweet it was, i thought it was a faulty product.

    4 packets!!!! I'd have a heart attack

    It’s not the sweetness in Equal that worries me, it’s the chemicals!

    No doubt. Your definitely knocking a few years off your life when it comes to Aspartame.
    But then again what isn’t killing us these days???

    I read an article how too much exercise can cause you cancer...I’m actually not making that up.

    This is my business! I design hot drinks! I come up with recipes and then brand them and sell them! My range of chai powders is www.chimochai.com (obviously I like chai) and I've just finished product development on a range of hot chocolates I'm bringing out under a different brand. My fav hot drink at the moment is my French Earl Grey Hot Chocolate :)

    Hair of the dog. I’m in Ho Chi Minh City where often a cold beer is actually a warm beer served with a glass of ice. Beware of ice in Asia.

    The weird and wonderful jobs people have! Must start a new thread on it sometime.

    In my teens I knew a guy who worked as the taster in a margarine factory (blergh) ...

    No I prefer the real stuff, so Jura Coffee machine for me, none of those pod machines unless you like flavoured coffee?
    My favourite by far is macchiato, and those closest to me know this...
    It was one of those quiz questions, who knows me best, what is my favourite coffee drink.
    In the evenings, I also like green, chamomile, peppermint, raspberry, nettle and fenugreek teas...variety of preferably herbal teas!
    Apparently what coffee we drink can predict our personalities:

    I can live with that :D ... although they forget to mention the bit about the nutso crazy lady:

    "If you are a cappuccino drinker, you are a very sophisticated individual. Your sense of style is very polished and put together. Unlike some of your friends, you aren’t the type of person to make crass jokes. You prefer to keep things a little classier. You also have a very creative mind, and your sociable nature makes you a very good friend to others.

    Obviously, a cappuccino is one of the classiest beverages out there, so it reveals just how sophisticated you are (or desire to be). Your morning cappuccino sets the mood for a day of creativity and style!"
