Because without the chocolate, it's like eating slightly burnt coffee flavoured sand. I eat them all the time because I have a fucking problem, but I don't enjoy it.
Is there a name for this problem? I'm imagining you sitting with a bowl of beans looking miserable, shaking your head and muttering, "damn beans"
End stage caffeine addiction. A terrible illness
4th stage is where it’s at
Anemia, pica
Genetic fast metaboliser of caffeine. Need more caffeine to have an effect and more prone to addiction. I decided once to drink espresso until I got the shakes. I needed 12 shots.
Eating beans seems terribly inefficient though. Eating the 30g of beans in a cup of coffee or a shot of espresso for example would be quite the snack. Water extraction of caffeine is highly efficient so you aren't leaving a lot behind from coffee / espresso either.
Have you tried Guarana pills or slow release caffeine pills? No data, but I've found Guarana to be a less jolty longer lasting than most forms of caffeine
To be clear, I'm eating them along side a quad espresso, not instead of it. Pretty sure guarana pils aren't available where I live, and the only caffeine pills available are weak and expensive.
I think you can eat the seeds and it is apparently possible to home grow guauranna (I doubt that it's particularly easy to grow though). Keep it away from pets.
I doubt it's particularly easy to grow here at any rate. It's just after midnight and the sun is shining.
Aah, like salmiakki (salty licorice). Tastes terrible, but I just can't stop eating them.
Wtf salmiakki tastes great you heathen
It tastes like death and I love it.
Salmiakki has nothing to do with liquorice. It's ammonium chloride, just another example of Scandinavians using floor cleaner as a flavour enhancer.
It's often used as the name for ammonium chloride on black licorice. The ammonium chloride also makes a great soldering iron tip cleaner!
Ok you're correct, I just checked the ingredients list for ifa and it does in fact contain 2,5 %. Liquorice extract.
