Because I am getting older, I not too long ago decided to stop drinking soda so much and start drinking coffee instead even though I don't care for how it tastes. Having only been drinking coffee regularly since December, I have no idea why coffee has different flavors. They all taste exactly the same. I bought various different flavors and tried them all back to back to see which one I liked best, and I couldn't tell the difference. They all tasted alike, whether it be a dark roast or a medium roast, and whether it has milk or some kind of creamer added. Like there's this one flavor by Starbucks called Pike Place Chocolate and Toasted Nut, which is a medium roast blend, which is initially what I drank the most until recently. I never tasted any chocolate flavor. Maybe some toasted nut, if by toasted nut they mean a nut that has been burned to a crisp in a skillet. I remember once Denis Leary was preaching how it's hard to get a "coffee flavored" coffee anymore. I don't know what he was going on about. It all tastes exactly the same, no matter what the flavor claims to be. The only major difference I noticed is when I tried out the McCafe pods (I also tried different brands), which sometimes have more of a sweetness to them and not in a good way. What's the deal here? Why do they have different flavors for coffee when all these flavors all taste alike?
