I heard a funny story about coffee. A swedish king wanted to prove that coffee was bad for you, and that tea was good for you. So he gathered some court officials and together they rounded up two prissioners of equal age and every morning gave one a cup of coffee and the other a cup of tea. Not only did the one drinking coffee not die but both of the prissioners outlived both the court officials aswell as the king. I don’t know if this story is true, but I think it’s kinda funny.

[@ribbitgoesthedoglastnamehe4681]

So, the king has an argument with someone, and his opponents as well as their witness dies. That I can believe.

[@vincentmuyo]

Ah, coffee, the solution to and cause of all of modern life's problems.

[@Attaxalotl]

I heard that he wasn't trying to prove coffee was bad, just determine whether or not it was safe, the prisoners were twins, they were observed by actual doctors, and that the tea-drinker actually died first, in his eighties. Though the part about the prisoners outliving both the king and their doctors was the same.

[@AudieHolland]

I think the myth about coffee's origin right at the start is simply how people would condense many many years into a short anecdote that stays truthful about the points that matter: *1.* Coffee was probably first experimented with by goat herders who saw how their animals responded to chewing and ingesting the beans; *2.* The clergy was probably involved because they were often the local authorities on whose grounds the goat herders herded goats; *3.* People first chewed it, then tried hot water with it, etc. etc. Note how dry and overly long my 'summary' is. Much more fun and entertaining when told like the story at the start of the video. Which is why certain myths exist in my opinion. Myths were the *edutainment* of ancient times!

@@tylerboyce4081 Turkish coffee is great, but definitely different if you're used to more modern methods of brewing. Interestingly, I can down an entire 14-cup pot of my favorite dark-roasted Sumatran coffee over a few hours, but a single serving of Turkish coffee is enough for me for the day. I often wonder if the time and effort spent making and waiting for a cup of Turkish coffee more or less forces a state of mindfulness on the drinker such that one cup feels satiating, as opposed to the modern convenience of using an electric grinder and auto-drip which lets you do other things while the pot is running then come back to brewed coffee waiting for you. Of course, there's also the thick texture and almost cloying sweetness of Turkish coffee that might be a contributing factor as well in terms of satiety.

Little fun fact about coffe, from Lisboa, Portugal. One of the slang words for coffee, here, is *_bica_* . When coffee was first introduced, by one of the earliest coffee shops, the public didn't really like it, because many tought it was too bitter. So the shop got the idea of promoting coffee with sugar, the slogan being "Drink this with coffee", and that worked like a charm. The slogan in portuguese is "Beba Isto Com Açucar", B-I-C-A.

Sometimes gossip tabloid journalists will also flock to the place when he's involved in a high profile case. Just to get a chance to interview him before he gets to work. Interesting place.
