But however you spell it, I'm certain that you will love to savor our chocolate truffles, our Champagne truffles or our raspberries truffles. They are exquisite at any time of the day with or without coffee! ...

Same thing with the ingredients you put in your sandwiches or the way you eat, which could send subliminal messages about your sexual habits. But let's concentrate on coffee. It's when I saw a tweet from @SimonVilleneuve (https://ow.ly/4igcC) that I had the idea for this post. Before you read on, I just want to advise you to take this with a grain... of coffee ;) ...
