    Dude, I drink two-three POTS of coffee a day. Three cups seems very normal.

    I'm closer to chickie. Though I've been drinking too much soda, lately.

    Gotta get back to the coffee.

    So Starbucks was wasting $400M a year, and just NOW decides to stop? Idiots.

    I used to work with someone who could only drink decaf. Drinking regular coffee would cause problems in her system. As for me, I usually like taking half-calf. If I drank a full cup of regular coffee, I'd be too jumpy.

    I wouldn't think stopping the brewing of decaf after noon would save $400 million...

    And the other shoe drops.

    I have a feeling this is where a lot of that $400 million is coming from.

    A guy I worked with at Starbucks compared drinking decaf to having sex with a condom.

    Decaf defeats the purpose of coffee.

    I drink nothing but decaf. Why? IBS.

    Sorry for the TMI, but it's the truth. I love iced coffee, but good lord, if I have caffeine I am a wreck. I would assume for most people with IBS, it's the same.

    Those of you who can enjoy caffeine and/or beer without the after-effects...consider yourselves fortunate.
