Many of us have made the mistake at Quik Trip of letting it ride with a shot of Irish Creme and a shot of pumpkin spice flavoring, laying waste to our travel mug of coffee. And yet as bad as our early morning experiments might have been, they can't come close to touching what goes on in the blog Putting Weird Things in Coffee.
It's the work of a Canadian graduate student in psychology -- it actually feels a bit like a group psychology experiment -- who "got bored with the same old cream and sugar" and decided "to document my experiments for the benefit of all mankind."
With categories like "really weird," "disgusting failures" and "cheese," you can see where this is heading.
So far there's been a raw egg in coffee (a new take on egg shell brewed coffee). Also from the dairy family, coffee has been combined with smoked salmon cream cheese or blue cheese.
Perhaps the most successful to date has been cake turned into a blended coffee drink, which was like a "mild hot chocolate."
It's pleasing to know that in order to achieve the blended drinks, the author is apparently using a Magic Bullet. I believe these are exactly the kind of drinks that should be made with a product sold by the finest infomercial in existence. It could be history's first example of regret-based drinks made in a regret-based purchase.
The author is actively seeking reader suggestions -- with two conditions. He won't put in anything that he wouldn't eat by itself, and no "dog poop." I'm glad he has standards.
