I was told I couldn't have coffee anymore because of recent digestive issues. Decaf tea is the recommended substitute. I live outside the space time continuum.

I think the market is still tight overall in general tho its just that the recent worst case scenario fears for the moment have been avoided. The prospect of mass loss of crop would of sent an already tight market into outright severe shortage. Coffee will remain pricey but not to a post apocaliptic level lol. At least not for now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
