Most mornings I need a coffee fix. I think Starbucks coffee is about as tasty as water steeped through burnt wood. I’ve been sticking with this little chinese-couple run deli up the street from the office for their coffee which is quite good.

But the one thing that annoys me about getting coffee from that place is that they charge $1.89 for a large cup, so after taxes, its about $2.04. They dont take plastic. So I have to hand over $3, and get a pocketful of change back. Every day. There’s a small mountain of silver/copper on my desk right now becuase people who know me, know I hate carrying around change.

So I’d been reading about how McD coffee is actually quite good. How it beat out Starbucks in some blind taste-tests. (Again, that’s not much of a challenge, considering how horrible Starbucks tastes.) This morning I decided to see for myself, and stopped in for a cup. Which cost me $1.34.

VERDICT: It’s cheap. But it’s lacking in flavor. Guess Ill be sticking with the chinese-couple brew and 96 cents in change.
