A good cuppa tea puts the world to rights :-)Www@FoodAQ@Com

i drink Coffee every now and then but i try to stay away from tea unless im really craving it!. when i was at the end of one of my pregnancies i craved and drank lots and lots of ice tea with my 1 year old daughter!. we ended up being anemic and i was told by WIC that tea blocks the absorption of iron!. they told me you can eat tons and tons of food with iron in one day but when you follow it with tea you don't absorb the iron!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Mines for health reasons more than anything but it's not by choice!. I have a boxing scholarship and caffeine is a big no, no!. I'm not allowed coffee or anything with coffee in it for 8 weeks before a match so that equates to never!. It's annoying because I really like coffee!. I haven't had coffee since I was 8 and now I'm 16 so it's a long time to not have it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I don't drink coffee as the caffeine gives me the jitters I also avoid painkillers with caffeine in!. I mostly drink fruit or herbal teas but every now and then a good mug of proper builder's tea is just right with a slice of toast and jam!. And yes, I know that tea has caffeine in too!
Why would religion affect tea or coffee consumption!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

Myself,I try to stay away from coffee for two reasons!.

#1 in the long run it can have affects on your health as far as your gi system

#2 Never really cared for the taste,when I go to starbucks they look at me crazy for adding so much flavor and creamer!.!.!.I like the caffeine just not the taste!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I drink coffee and tea on a regular basis (a cup of each every day)!. Some people I know don't drink coffee and tea because they get diarrhea from the drinks!. Tea and coffee can cause some people to urinate more frequently!. also, with coffee at least, it can stain your teeth yellow if you drink a lot!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I try to avoid cofee , not keen and have to put loadza sugar in it to enjoy so theres not much point!.

I love tea However , usually only drink it if im cold though :)

I prefer something more refreshing like a softdrink , water n lime as said above or alcohol :)Www@FoodAQ@Com

Up until this last Spring I didn't drink tea or coffee (I'm an adult) because I absolutely couldn't stand the taste of either!. I'd tried loads of different teas but couldn't find a drinkable one!. One day (needing an energy boost) I tried black coffee with 2 sugars and found I could just about drink it!. Now I actually like black coffee!

Funny how tastes can change!.!.!. still hate tea though!Www@FoodAQ@Com

I prefer tea, but i do drink coffee!. I have 2-3 cups of coffee in a day, if i have tea though i have way more cups in a day!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
