Despite the closeness of the coffee's home on the islands of Sumatra, Java and Sulawesi, Australia's first civet cat brew has only just gone on sale in Queensland state, selling for A$50 a cup at the Heritage Tea Rooms, west of Townsville. "Everyone calls it cat poo coffee," cafe owner Michelle Sharpe told the Australian Associated Press. "People who willingly pay the $50 are uplifted by the thrill of the experience," her husband Allan Sharpe said."It's as good as my private life is bad. This is the kind of coffee you renounce your religion and sell your child for," one taster quoted by AAP said. http://www.reuters.com/article/lifes...D8159120070516 Oh say, why don't they just save some time and money and go to their cat's litter box and use that? Makes about as much sense///people are so stupid...to willingly drink something with civet poo in it! Of course, amny people rub civet anal gland sewcretions on their bodies whgen it's distilled into perfume as the oil carrier but at least it doens't go into the digestive tract....ugh....wish I had a bridge to sell.... You do. Lots of them, in fact. Take your pick and name your price. I have no doubt you'll have takers. Max |
