Trendy Ingredients Gone Too Far

[fauxklore]

I hate to come home to my place being a complete mess, so I tend to do a certain amount of scurrying around and tidying up before going on vacation. In this particular case, I was clipping coupons that have been sitting on the sofa for a few weeks. (Which is a chore I always intend to do right when I am reading the Sunday newspaper, but rarely get around to before said coupons expire.)

And there is a coupon for a new variety of Eight O'Clock called "Metabolism Boost." The gimmick is that this coffee is infused with antioxidants from green tea.

I don't drink commercial coffee, being the unrepentant coffee snob I am, so it is probably not fair for me to comment. But I do want to point out that coffee is higher in antioxidants than green tea.
