    My wife eats coffee beans straight out of the bag as if they were M&M's! Is this safe? Surely coffee eaten this way in it's purest form can't be good for the heart?

    I've seen chocolate cover beans for sale as snacks.
    I can't see how it would be bad for the heart, No different to the equivalent caffine from coffee. There's prob 10 beans to a cup.

    Obviously eat lots presents the same issue as excessive coffees.

    Are you just miffed cos she's more hardcore than you? Just try to outdo her by snorting tea out of the bag.

    So you didn't get the answer you wanted in the Coffee & Tea forum?

    Lol, "coffee in it's purest form." You'd think we're talking about Grade A Colombian cocaine here.

    coffee in it's purest form would be berries on the tree :)

    7grammes or so in a shot of coffe, thats about 30 beans. So you need to eat a fair amount to equal a cup or two
