i love coffee. the flavor, the aroma.... it's all so delicious. i drink it black and i have for like two and a half years. my favorite liquid in the world... aside from unadulterated H2O!!!! ;P
however, after finding out through various sources, what little these coffee farmers survive on... i'm done with any NON-Fair Trade coffees.
it took me about a week and a half, but i weened myself off of the wonderful drink i've been physically and psychologically addicted to for several years.
the first addiction i've really been able to kick. i'm workin on the others. but i'm glad to be free of the bondage of that injustice in my own life. Starbucks usually has Fair Trade coffee people... ask for it next time! please! that's my brother's salary you'll be boosting by buying fair trade!
maybe tonight he'll actually be able to afford a simple dinner for his 7-member family.
PAX.
