Actually, coffee contains both acetaldehyde and acrylamide. Both of them are carcinogens. They slightly increase the risk of cancers of the upper digestive tract from oral cancer to stomach cancer.
There are far worse things for your health like smoking and alcohol, but coffee does carry a slight increased risk of cancer.
That being said, when I do drink coffee, I drink it black. I like it on really cold nights, when I can’t sleep, and I go on a night walk to a cafe that is open 24 hours a day. I like holding the piping mug of black coffee in my hands and smelling its wonderful aroma and steam rising up in my face, as I stare out the window looking at the cars drive by in night and watching them tail lights slowly fade off in the distance.
I guess that explains it xD
I recently found a lactose free coffee creamer, and I’m thrilled. I prefer my coffee with milk and sugar, but I’ll drink it black if I have to.
It depends on the coffee. Good coffee I’ll drink black, bad coffee I’ll add cream, really bad coffee I’ll add cream and sugar. Sometimes I add cream and sugar if I’ve got a sweet tooth moment. It all depends.
I only drink decaffeinated coffee and only drink it black, no sweeteners. I’ve been drinking it black since I was a teensger. I have a small cruel streak, yes, since I take after my father, who had a big cruel personality.
