      Yeah, that was incredible too. I wonder how many other agricultural products are made by people who never had an opportunity to consume them? Are there coffee growers who have never had a cup of coffee?

        Vanilla bean is one. A lot of the people who produce it don’t really understand why we want it.

          Sounds like an anachronistic law that can be overturned by voting for the right party come next election!

        Making chocolate from cacao pods is a lot more complicated than making coffee from raw beans. Because of that, I assume most coffee growers have access to brewed coffee.

      It really shouldn’t. Most people working jobs don’t get paid enough to benefit from the services or products they provide.
