I prefer coffee to tea.But coffee is more poisonous than tea,coffee contains Caffiene which is more poisonous than the Theobromine which is present in the tea.But I prefer coffee,i don't know exactly why I like coffee.Maybe because coffee is more odorous than tea I like it.Do you like coffee or tea? If so why do you prefer and what do you think is the best.

I just hate coffee and the smell of it. You know what. Me and my brother had never had any drinks. Coffee, Tea or Milk. We just hate those. Hehe. Only during my graduation I started drinking tea. Because I will feel tired after the college and started drinking that. Still I don't like to have Coffee or Milk. Hehe. Had milk twice I guess. At that time I was so hungry and the dinner provided in my hostel was worse. So I had no other go than drinking milk. Hehe. Lol.

Thanks vidya! I have never tasted tea in my home,I mistakenly drank that in my hostel.I was unaware of which one is coffee and which one is tea there in my hostel,as both were alike in taste.After some days my friends told that the one I'm drinking was tea.Oh my God I was such a poor guy there in my hostel.LOL.

I have to drink coffee many times and just do not have the taste for it. I tried putting cream and sugar in it and does nothing for me. Even an acquaintance of mine tried to get me hooked by letting me taste different flavors but I just cannot drink the stuff. Coffee does have a nice aroma to it though. I love tea of different kinds especially herbal: green, jasmine, red, orange, etc. I got like 5 different brands of tea in the kitchen cabinet right now. My all time favorite brand of tea is Celestial Seasonings. The apple flavor one is to die for. It smells so much like apple cider and reminds of the fall and the leaves turning colors. Of course if I just don't feel like drinking my herbal tea, there is always Lipton tea sitting on the shelf lol.

I don't actually drink coffee or tea but do drink iced caps which are a form of coffee !! I used to like coffee and tea when I was younger and was not supposed to drink it but somehow when I got older and could have it whenever I wanted , I didn't care for it . There is caffeine present in iced caps as well as a normal cup of coffee , and I believe this is what keeps me more hooked on the taste of it .

I don't drink coffee. I prefer tea as in green tea. Because green tea has a lot of healthy benefits to our body like lowering cholesterol, anti cancer agent called cathecin and it helps in losing weight. But then again, too much of anything we take is no good. If we consume too much of green tea, it will cause less iron to be absorb in our body. This is what I read in the research. So moderate consumption would be okay.

Actually both tea and coffee contain caffiene, its just that coffee has twice as much. Theobromine is in chocolate (theo - gods, bromos - body. Theobromine - the flesh of the gods, which is a loose translation of what the South Americans who discovered chocolate called it.)

Hello,Chris! I am tea addicted.It has many medicinal values.If you are cold,tea will warm you.If you are too heated ,it will cool you.If you are depressed,it will cheer you.If you are excited,it will calm you.Research has shown that antioxidants found in tea can help in reducing heart diseases,prevent cancer and improve the immune system.Thanx.
