Vietnamese coffee is a beautiful beautiful thing. Love the flavors, can never pin down the exact ingredients

It tastes like cheap dark preground coffee with lots of condensed milk. Literally anything will taste good with condensed milk (try it on your eggos!)

But really most places and that particular brand uses some herb (I think chicory is what it's called) and it's generally what's served at most vietnamese places in America. When I used to have it a lot at home we used a different brand that didn't use it

sneering way too hard for some reason.

Once I got some horrible espresso at a baseball game (still don't know why I ordered that); then I realized it tasted exactly like the coffee I make on my own.

Chicory huh? Maybe I'll have to try that

And yea, apparently condensed milk is like the worst thing ever for you

"sliders" [sic] are for twats and girls i don't want to know

I always get a kick out of people who hate inanimate objects with conviction and vociferousness.

i don't usually hate items, i hate the concept and the people that would indulge in such things, and the attitude and mindset that they carry along with it

 

but really, my hatred knows no bounds

What if there were a scenario where millions of people were starving, and the only food available to them were sliders? Would you hate the idea that millions of people ate a food that of which you hate the idea, or would you be able to quell your hatred for a brief while, letting the famished enjoy their satiety in peace?

i would hate the other millions that got off on the idea that the food they were feeding starving people was "like totally cute, you know?"

What if no one thought that? What if everyone feeding the people loved the food for its true, unfiltered value of being someone's salvation, and not for its innate cuteness and pocketability?

how untweenkspirit of you

can I answer later? I'm making totally cute buffalo chicken sliders.  This way everyone gets to have a bit and feel sooo not guilty! I've got a toppings bar, and you can pick your spiciness level, and even method of ingestion~ (oral, anal, vaginal, osmosis)

Yes chicory is what it is called. That particular brand is the most iconic New Orleans coffee. I had it at the market shown on the side of that can many times (many tourists can say that too). It is usually served very strong. Chicory coffee with beignets and powdered sugar is a long standing New Orleans tradition.

I was told that the tradition of adding chicory to coffee started during the Civil War, when coffee beans were scarce. Maybe it started later though. It is basically a poor person's solution to scarcity that has lived on.
