Fair enough. I tried it when I bought a coffee some elderly wealthy people rave about that imo was awful. Completely undrinkable, imo. I was going to throw it away but a friend suggested it may become less disgusting by adding a pinch of salt. A pinch was a bit much but I experimented a few days until I finally got a drinkable (but still not good) cup.

    Oh, heck yeah! I used to do home health, and some of the older generation I worked for would be all hyped about sanka of all things lol. I guess it makes sense, what with the coffee industry having been different over the last fifty years compared to the fifty before that.

    Not that I'm hating on the old school mass market coffee entirely. It's a solid, drinkable caffeine delivery system. It just ain't for sipping as a form of pleasure. Since I neither want nor need the caffeine, why bother? I'd likely throw that half to quarter pinch into that stuff nowadays

    My grand used to drink that, exclusively. Tbf, I'm under the impression it was the only decaf brand, at the time (I'm old, ok?!).
