News that coffee made from beans which have passed through the digestive system of an indonesian Civet Cat is selling at $50 per cup should surprise nobody.
Anyone who has bought a styrofoam bucket of liquid from one of the big franchise outlets will be familiar with coffee that tastes like cat's piss, so coffee that is made from cat shit was a natural step forward for the marketing boys.

Maybe it's the next best thing to a coffee enema.

Thanks for the comment - our threads have been a bit bare; or perhaps I've been spoiled by my 250 commen threads at gather.com

Just get some bits of stone from the cats basket ''Have you tried our instant? made from the same beans.''

Nice job
, I wonder how much the picker/sorter gets from $50-

Peanuts I should think, and not very pleasant tasting ones at that.

$50 a cup!? Even at London prices, that is extortionate!
