[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I was young my Great Grandmother made coffee milk for me. We would sit and play cards, she drank her coffee, I drank my coffee milk.

My mother and grandmother also made me coffee milk while we played cards! Was your GG eastern european?  
I have been drinking a cup of coffee a morning since I was in high school - one cup a day, often I don't even finish the cup, because it is the taste, smell, warmth and ritual of it that I "need" more than the caffeine.  I really don't think it is a big deal.[/quote]

If you are from Europe, then most likely you also were not sedentary and walked everywhere, so perhaps a bit of coffee as a child didn't impact you much.  But, American kids are more sedentary (indoor recess?), so caffeine + sedentary = not good outcome.

Also, sorry, but Europeans smoke too much so it's not like they have such a healthy lifestyle, either.[/quote]

Huh?  Sugar = fat.  Caffeine is actually an appetite suppressant.  A cup of black coffee is not going to make you fat and it might just make you not hungry for breakfast.  At least that's the way it has always worked for me.[/quote]
