Would have to be the purr-fect brew at those prices

Though if it get's popular, it might be cat-astrophic as the entrepreneurial types start to breed'n'feed the poor critters...

Thanks but no thanks ..... I'll stick to my Earl Grey.

[steve.ledger]

Well Keith I think they are definately on to a winner there, after all - you couldn't really complain that is tastes like cr*p....

[ss-kalm]

You have a point there!

Bob, what must be remembered is that The Daily Mail, once a respected organ of the fourth estate, has descended to the level of the National Enquirer in terms of its adherence to facts, (judging by the Mail's website, anyway). Nobody in their right mind would pay $50 for coffee made from cat excrement in London, any more than people in Lost Angeles would. Not even for a bet... would they? Or has the world gone completely mad?
I do remember being in a food emporium in Hong Kong about 25 years ago and seeing little cylindrical tubs labelled "Ant Essence" for sale. So perhaps the world has gone mad. I know it's possible to buy tins of Shark Curry or packets of Chocolate Bees.
We shouldn't be too surprised at what humans will ingest; snails, tripe, brains and all manner of offal. Given that a recent UN report is predicting food riots/wars because of shortages in many countries, we might just have to adapt...
Another demi-tasse of latte de doo-doo a la chat anyone?
Make mine Nescafé,
Bob.

I am just forwarding info rec'd from a friend who reads the Drudge Report daily. Please, don't take this the wrong way, anyone. I LOVE my overseas friends. This was just pretty funny and thought you guys might get a laugh or two. No offense meant anywhere, please.
