      Yeah, that’s the funniest thing to me. There’s an actual fruit that we could eat. Instead, we take the seed, roast it, grind it and soak it in boiling water. Then we drink the water.

      You couldn’t disrespect the coffee plant more, if you tried.

      I’ve never had the cherries raw, but I’ve had tea made from the cherries called cascara. It’s pretty damn tasty.
