The Internet Is Arguing Over The Best Way To Take Your Coffee

There are some things in like that are deeply personal choices, like whether or not to have children, whether to get married, and… how you take your coffee? Everyone likes their morning brew differently and while that’s generally fine, that hasn’t stopped the internet from getting into a major argument over the best way to take your coffee and it’s pretty hilarious.

1. How much milk is too much milk?

Personally, I want to taste my coffee, and I like it as strong as possible. That means having just as much milk as coffee – or even more than a couple of tablespoons of cream/milk – is way too much to me. Am I drinking coffee or a cup of milk with coffee flavor? Come on, have some decency!

2. Clearly #1 or #2 are the only right answers.

I mean, once you go beyond #2, you’re basically a heathen. As for numbers 5-7, I just… have no words. I don’t even think there’s any coffee in there! I can’t even believe anyone would like that, let alone admit it if they did.

3. Want a partner? Attract love with the power of your mind.

4. People have some really strong opinions on this.

Many of the people who like more milk in their coffee were a bit annoyed by the black coffee drinkers, who they found smug and kind of annoying. “all the ppl who drink their coffee black are coming out of the woodworks like “bubububub I drink black coffeee, oh you don’t like the bitter why don’t you drink milkie instead haha” goddamn, so what I don’t like being greeted with gross bitterness in the morning,” one person wrote. Ouch! Another added: “if you drink 1 you might as well just grab a bag of unground coffee beans and eat them straight from the bag.”

5. Sugar was a hot topic as well.

I don’t personally put sugar in my coffee as I’d like to drink coffee, not dessert. Some people seemed to agree with me, with one person remarking that “people who put sugar in it will go to hell.” Another added that they used a tablespoon or so of creamer to add a bit of sweetness to their coffee without making it too gross, which is a fair point as well.

6. Whatever your coffee choice, just enjoy it.

However, please stick to 1-4 at the VERY worst. Otherwise, you might as well not bother.
