Maxwell House or Folgers

Maxwell House or Folgers?

I'll take "What would I enjoy less than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick" for 500, Alex.

8 o'clock Columbian is OK for cheap coffee .. Yuban is better than either of those two noted above and can be had at WM reasonably priced although not as cheap as the other 2 noted above.

Why do you consider Yuban to be a good coffee. I might pick some up this weekend.

Oh, I didn't say it was good coffee, I said it was better than Folgers or Maxwell house :-). Lets put it this way, I can drink Yuban from a freshly opened can ... I find Folgers and Maxwell House to be terrible.

Tombstone and SeanGar... a couple o' grizzled old cowpoke avatars hashing out the coffee situation around a campfire... Hard to find an image that makes a cow more nervous. I'm outta here.

I used to like Hill Bros. 100% Columbian in my Bunn before I discovered the French press and fresh ground.
Never cared for MH or Folgers.

For a local brand in the south, some of the Community Coffee blends are decent and Luzianne makes a good medium roast.

If you're in the French Quarter though you have to go to Cafe du Monde and have some of their French Market Coffee.

I like the old A&P Eight O'Clock whole bean coffee for a commercial roast but my favorite in a can coffee is without a doubt Hills Bros coffee.

I currently buy Cafe Don Pablo whole bean coffee in a two pound bag at Costco Warehouse.
