So, I've got a highly speculative hypothesis that BIG COFFEE will have a similar tobacco-like health event in the future. These are my semi-conspiratorial circumstantial evidences:
1. It's basically burnt bean water. Roasted is just a marketing term.
2. The constant rate of "New Study Finds Coffee Improves [insert health benefit]" articles
3. The incredibly powerful forces (industrial, corporate, personal) that would hold back such an event
I'm not willing to defend this hypothesis, but I would love some steel-manning
