Truck Stop Coffee - I can't take it anymore

To be honest, I tried it because of the name….. and it was cheap! And a very big can!!!

 

I’ve got a single-cup Keurig. Plenty for me as I just don’t consume coffee like I used to. Two of those a day are plenty for me.

 

seriously..??

i mean...seriously...???

that's THE ONLY brand i get at Wally's world, and i don't buy 1 can, i buy "up to" 6 of the 2 pound cans each time...

that brand has been around for years.

since 1926 in fact......that's 97 years of GREAT coffee......

i ain't got time for all that manual labor....

Mr Coffee...........pour in water, turn on, let it drip, then drink.....

 

I grind my beans right before I press the coffee, too. It's a whole process, but I enjoy that.

 

I’ve never heard of that brand of coffee either, must be a regional thing. Not everything in Walmart are ‘national brands’, you will find some products that are only marketed in certain parts of the country.

 

I got mine at Walmart, but I did not like it at all… on the flip side, I tried the Bourbon Pecan coffee that Pilot has today, definitely a 5 star!

 

Not only do I have familiarity with the brand, but NOW I’m stuck with their jingle going through my empty skull!
I was a radio DJ from ‘81 til ‘95. Haven’t actually heard the tune since then….YET IT IS STILL THERE!!!

 

Forty-plus years ago, I noticed that coffee tended to get lousy the further west you went, especially in the Rockies. I remember there was a popular coffee company in the mountain states, and their ordinary blend was just terrible. I remember the time I first stopped at a Sapp Bros. truckstop; you'd THINK that a chain that used a coffee pot as it's trademark might have good coffee, but NOOOOOO, it was as bad as any other. Coffee on the left-coast was usually at least OK, but coffee in Seattle was better. And, if you were driving Canada, at least you had Tim Horton's...

One time, I was at a truckstop somewhere in Oklahoma. I had a cup of coffee that was even worse than usual; it had some strange metallic taste to it. It was so bad, I grabbed a glass of water to wash it down, and found out that the metallic taste came straight from the water. They had probably the WORST water I'd ever tasted; it was VERY hard, and obviously from a well. Today, you'd expect a place like that to have a water softener, but I guess this place was too poor to buy one...
