Drink enough of it and it'll give ya problems. When my dad tried to quit coffee drinking entirely, he suffered major headaches and couldn't sleep for some time. It took him a while to get off of it, and he was only drinking 2-3 cups a day, just over a long period of time.
If you want caffeine in a source that isn't as bad for you, try tea. Green tea, especially, has other health benefits that outweight the negative effects of the caffeine. It doesn't have quite the zest of a cup of joe, and is no comparison to Starf*cks in the caffeine department, but it's good and decently good for ya. I have 1 cup of green tea each day....I can't say it keeps me awake, but it sure tastes good. Then I don't have to load on sugar, like cheap coffee....
I hate Starf*cks anyways.....they shut down a few really good mom and pop coffee shops in Atlanta. They took nice areas of Atlanta with some culture and moved in with their ultra-corporate we will assimilate you crappy looking buildings and destroyed the entire landscape. For anybody familiar with Atlanta, I'm talking about Little 5. Ugh what an eyesore that Starbucks is.....
Not to mention if you get the flavored drinks and lattes and stuff, you're just packin in the calories. Not as important for some as others, but it is an issue to be aware of if you are dieting. I'm sure you're not, Rob....but somewhere out there somebody is. Bum bum bum.......
<---- I love this.....
