Coffee is decaffeinated by treating it with methyl halides in some places, and it's pretty impossible to get all the dichloromethane/chloromethane/whatever out afterward. I did it myself in a quantitative analysis class and i got to keep a little nmr tube of caffeine i extracted :D but don't drink decaf that stuff is no joke that's like one chlorine away from chloroform

Seriously, you again with another loving thread about your food snobbery? Is this all you do? Keep posting the same honeypot poo poo threads over and over to debate food and the differences between everyone in the world and your faggy, British ways. Give up already. The great Satan will make you suffer for this in the times to come. And Satan drinks whatever Satan wants. (30)
