These days many coffee shops sell little baggies of chocolate-covered roasted coffee beans, and even though they’re growing in popularity, some still wonder if people should eat roasted coffee beans.
They’re an organic product, and safe for most to eat – the only thing you want to watch out for is that the really hard ones may be tough on your teeth. Also, the beans, like coffee, contain caffeine, so as addictive as those tasty chocolate covered coffee beans can be, you may not want to overdo it if caffeine is an issue.
One cup of coffee contains around 25 coffee beans, and you’re not getting the full coffee bean in coffee, so the caffeine can add up if you eat a lot.
Did you know?
It is an old Italian tradition to serve the drink Sambuca with several whole coffee beans in it. Sambuca is an anise-flavored liquor and is sometimes added to coffee for flavor.
It is also believed that monks would eat coffee beans before long prayer sessions.
