Put simply, there is too much of everything. Too many choices. I was standing behind a guy in a coffee shop for about a century while he was trying to make up his mind exactly what kind of coffee he wanted. God be with the days a cup of coffee was just that. Now you can spend your youth weighing up your options. I could have murdered him by the time I got my own coffee.very mad

Yes cheese is another area where you scrath your head. I think most cheeses now are so pumped with colourants, spices and plastic bulking substances that there isnt even room for bacteria. And even the humble spud has such a variety of pedigress.. some for roasting, boiling, mashing, steaming etc. You have maris pipers, king edwards, kerrs pink, golden wonders... the list goes on and on.

I like any coffe once it's warm and wet. But do you remember the days when a coffee was a coffee. It was usually Maxwell House fine ground instant chipped off the inside of a catering tin and you were some sort of an eccentric if you asked for fresh filter coffee.

milankovic: You see what I mean. The abundance of choice makes choosing take longer than it should and in a strange way it breeds disatisfaction. The more there is the more people crave. We seem to want more of everything, texture, shapes, flavours and it applies to everything. I now go to buy cereal with the kids and it entails rows over every cereal ever made. I have taken out loans with less decision making than buying a cereal.

Now if you'll excuse me im off to have a normal, regular cup of coffee.


i like the choice..im kinda decisive.. maybe the indesive people should only be allowed out shopping for 1 hr a day and us decisive people can aboid "gimp hour" lol

One of the advantages of having little money is that you always choose the cheapest option on a menu, including coffee. I will usually try out whatever is on offer which is how I discovered the delights of a Spiced Chai Latte love
