- 1 Not mine
- 2, 3, 4 You really think drinking coffee is about caffeine? What’s next, you should eat sugar instead of drinking soda?
It’s not unpopular, it’s being ignorant.
Take my mocha away and there will be trouble. Lol
Sure, if your goal is literally just to get a dose of caffeine. Some people actually like the taste and experience of drinking it in liquid form.
TIL
Not every way. Coffee is better:
Coffee tastes good.
Coffee is reasonably healthy, it’s a food not a pill.
Coffee is nice to relax with friends, it’s overall a pleasant experience.
On dose only, I agree. But why be efficient about eating and drinking? That doesn’t seem like a reasonable goal. I want to be inefficient about that. Stop and relax.
coffee tastes good with sugar, pills are better, not everyone likes pleasantries.
Not everyone uses sugar.
“Better” is subjectivefair
Coffee tastes worse with sugar, black is better.
If you’re only interested in the energy/wakefulness then you’re better off quitting caffeine altogether. The energy a regular user gets from caffeine is just the alleviation of withdrawal symptoms.
Every possible way? How about the fact that I drink coffee for the taste and ritual - not for the caffeine.
Every. Possible. Way.
You didn’t address my argument. How is a caffeine pill supposed to substitute for my favorite moment in the morning - sitting down and enjoying a hot, delicious beverage?

Have someone jet wash your skin makes more sense than having a shower
People downvoting seem to have forgotten this unpopular opinions.
I love the taste of coffee and it’s the only thing I drink other than water. It’s not just about caffeine intake and happily drink decaf along with 2 regular coffees.
Counterpoint: the ratio of downvotes to upvotes indicates that it is an unpopular opinion

Yeah its more efficient for sure, but coffee/tea/other caffeine producing plants have more alkaloids than just caffeine in them. Pure THC feels different than cannabis, plain nicotine is different than tobacco, etc. Yeah it will do the job, but elements of the experience are missing. Ever notice that the caffeine buzz from tea feels different than from coffee? Its not just the amount. Also, coffee and tea are tasty and come with a ritual that in my opinion is just as important as the drug itself. Pulling a shot of espresso and sipping on it does more for me in the morning than just chugging something caffeinated. And you can control the amount of caffeine you get to a certain degree. Most Arabica coffee contains close to 0.5%-1% caffeine by weight after roasting, so I know my shot of espresso made with 18g of beans is going to be a little under 130mg of caffeine on average accounting for less than perfect extraction.
Then there’s the potential real health benefits of drinking tea or coffee as well.
Drinking Everclear makes more sense than having a beer.
By the same logic, Soylent is better than food…
Except you’re forgetting that it’s about the enjoyment of the whole experience, not just getting caffeine into your body as efficiently as possible. That would be an IV drip.

True … Your opinion isn’t gonna be popular any time soon ;) . It’s not (just) about caffeine. The problem seems to me you never had a decent cup coffee in your life.
Drinking a Cup of hot water works better to relax me better than anything else.

Then a supper of salt and a waltz through your empty bed?
Well, I love coffee but at the moment I’d better avoid caffeine, thus I’m drinking a lot of decaffeinated. What I mean, coffee isn’t just about caffeine.
Indeed unpopular, well done!
