I’m really down on these ‘healthy’ coffee companies. While there are several other scammy outfits out there selling snake oil, it blows my mind that these people try to market to people who actually know what coffee tastes like, and that whole bean coffee is naturally healthy. It’s like trying to tell a cigar aficionado that a Swisher Sweet is better than a Fuente Fuente OpusX, or serving fish sticks to a food critic who specializes in seafood.
This week somebody sent me a sample of ORGANO GOLD CAFE LATTE. I had to laugh when I opened the package, and I remember saying “These clowns are relentless!” Not a week goes by that someone doesn’t send me their miracle coffee, beg me to join their healthy coffee company to become a millionaire, or request to advertise on my site. The answer to all of these requests is NO FREAKING WAY! I have yet to taste a ‘healthy coffee’ that I would even consider finishing the cup, let alone drinking it by choice.
Do yourself a favor and enjoy a cup of the REAL healthy coffee…coffee! The stuff grows on trees, and is only processed by drying and roasting. How in the world could powderizing and lacing it with preservatives be better than the natural product? By adding a mushroom extract? I don’t think so, give me the original healthy coffee…real coffee!!!! (Health benefits of coffee) The reason for this post is to share the ‘healthy’ ingredients of this…beverage. No matter what unproven health benefits this mushroom may possess, I would have to say that in this form it would be negligible.

Glad I’m not the only one hounded by these healthy coffee pushers! I tried to always stay positive, but I had to write a rant about the so-called healthy coffee industry a few months ago. Great article!

Thanks for dropping in Mike! These bums are hounding me like there’s no tomorrow. Apparently, they are not millionaires quite yet. Why else would they waste their time? Take care ?

I agree that the original is the best way to enjoy coffee, and if you’re gong to add ingredients to it, don’t make the mistake of claiming that this is in some way “better” or “healthier” than the original!
