Coffee Flavored Breakfast Cereal

Musrum writes "Hubbards, the New Zealand based makers of fine breakfast cereals, have launched 'Cafe au Lait', which they describe as "light coffee flavored flakes". This is great, just the thing for Xmas morning, wonderful coffee flavour, not too sweet. What took them so long? The packaging meets all known requirements for political correctness.

    Ingredients: . . . Coffee Flavour

    "Flavour." That's so genteel and British-sounding . . . but it doesn't answer the only important question, dammit!
    (Which is, naturally, does it have -- and if so how much -- caffeine?)

    combine your morning coffee with breakfast

    Doesn't everyone eat their Cheerios in out of their coffee cup anyway? Surely I'm not the only one . . .

  2. and how to brew that ultimate cup of coffee by Brigadier · · Score: 5, Interesting



    ok my grandfather used to be a coffee farmer in jamaica so i'm an expert.

    The ultimate cup of coffee recipe

    Blend a nice dark Roast like Yuban with the light flavor of something like Folgers or my favorite Jamaican blue mountain.

    use two filters as the slower straining process allows more flavor.

    use one very very big heaping spoon for each cup.

    remove the glass thingy (carraffe) and allow the coffee brew to almost fill the part of the coffee machine with the coffee grounds.

    Take your mug and put it in place of the carraffe and let the liquid mana fil your cup.

    add a pinch of salt, then sweeten to your preference.

    put the carraffe back so everyone else can enjoy.
