Many lives ago, I may have been a goat in Ethiopia which loved eating coffee berries...

Coffee was first discovered in Ethiopia, where a goatherd named Kaldi noticed his goats becoming energetic after eating coffee berries, leading to its cultivation and use in Yemen.

I can't stop. I want to stop.
The urge overtakes but also habitual good flavored waters that I also routine
I want to have the control but the caffeine has me.
I'm weak.

Pollan explains in a section of the audiobook on the substance’s origins that caffeine was first discovered in China around 1000 B.C. in the form of tea. The discovery of coffee is traced to Ethiopia around 850 A.D. According to the legend, a herder who noticed how jumpy his goats got after eating the berries of an arabica plant gave some of the berries to a local monk, who used them to concoct the world’s first cup of coffee

Cool. And, if I am not wrong, a cup of black tea has a greater amount of caffeine. I do like tea, too. But, coffee is my main caffeine molecule source. :wub:

If it is has shots of espresso as flavouring and coffee beans as little chocolate covered taste morsels.
Fer sure coffee cake does as one of the ingredients is a shot or two of espresso.
