Civet coffee: why it's time to cut the crap
This is one of those moments where I learn something I had no idea about, and am very glad someone wrote the Guardian story, and that someone posted it here.<p>I bought the civet coffee off ThinkGeek for a coffee snob friend of mine years ago. She said it tasted watery and bland, but thanked me for the thoughtful novelty anyway. Now I realize I not only gave her crappy coffee, it was crappy coffee created through abusing animals for a stupid gimmick. I feel like an asshole.
