Frankly I find "instant" coffee an abomination.. God's 11th Commandment should have been "Thou shalt not drink powered coffee" Companies like International Roast, Maxwell House and Pablo - as well as Homebrand, Savings etc should be ashamed of themselves..

Okay hate is a very strong word -- but out of the three colours green is my very least favourite -- but I will eat them -- Nick threw his away. Yellow Clinkers (Allens lollies chocolate covered sugary marzipan) are my absolutely favourite - they're pineapple flavoured, followed by the pink rasberry (which are Nick's favouite) and then the green which I have no idea what flavour its supposed to be - doesn't taste limey or appley - just green.
