Oh, this isn't a tea vs. coffee thing. Coffee is simply a medical necessity as far as I'm concerned. This is about my mystification at the idea of being made happy by any non-alcoholic drink.

I drank a can of Coke recently, for the first time in years. DO YOU KNOW HOW SWEET THAT STUFF IS?

I know. Insane, isn't it? But it's not just things like coke. I no longer drink bottled orange juice for the same reason. I had a glass of it in a hotel a while ago and thought I was going to go into diabetic coma.
