Poop coffee

After yesterday's post, my teenaged son tried to convince me that there are actually people who eat animal poop as a delicacy, but I totally didn't believe him. Just out of curiosity I asked my best friend, who is scary smart... I can ask him just about anything, and he usually knows the answer or knows where to find it. He told me about this rare coffee where the beans are pooped out of a little animal. I googled it, and it's totally true. Check this out: http://coffeetea.about.com/cs/kindsofcoffee/a/aakopiluwak.htm

Wow. I really don't think I would pay $160/lb for coffee beans that went through the digestive system of a little cat. But if someone offered me a cup I'd probably take a sip just for the hell of it.
