- Drinking Coffee stains teeth.
- Caffeine pills is way cheaper than Coffee.
- Swallowing Caffeine pill is more efficient than trying to drink coffee.
- You can’t control the caffeine dose with Coffee, but you can with pills.
And we should just get rid of sex, all insemination should be done in a lab because it’s much easier.
Here to say that people need to up vote OP more. They actually posted an unpopular opinion.
Just say you don’t like coffee and go take your pills mate some of us enjoy the flavor of the beverage
Caffeine pills are the functionally superior caffeine delivery solution, but when pleasure is taken into account, they fall short.
I don’t just drink coffee for the caffeine delivery, I also like how it tastes, and I value the social ritual around coffee.
I love the smell of coffee more than the taste.
And if the aromatherapy industry is any indication, we humans really like to smell things that were like
I think coffee just generally smells better than it tastes.
It still tastes good, but I would rather drink that smell for sure
If coffee doesn’t taste like it smells, you need better coffee
Not at all, I get freshly roasted specialty coffee ordered in small batches from a local roaster, and it tastes amazing.
Still, the smell is decidedly more pleasant, probably because you don’t really smell the bitter part of coffee, which while not at all overwhelming in the coffee I drink, is still decidedly a note.
Fair enough. But your coffee probably does taste like other people’s coffee smells
One important difference about price: my job has free coffee in every break room. They do not offer free caffeine pills.
Unpopular, maybe, but I agree with OP. When I finally counted up all the caffeine I was consuming, I found I was over 1500mg/day.
I switched to caffeine-free drinks the next day, and tapered down to 200mg in the mornings.
Apparently, I shouldn’t try to explain this to people IRL.
Sure, if your goal is literally just to get a dose of caffeine. Some people actually like the taste and experience of drinking it in liquid form.

- 2, 3, 4 You really think drinking coffee is about caffeine? What’s next, you should eat sugar instead of drinking soda?
It’s not unpopular, it’s being ignorant.
Take my mocha away and there will be trouble. Lol
Can’t dip no cookies into a pill, and that’s a fact, Jack
Every possible way? How about the fact that I drink coffee for the taste and ritual - not for the caffeine.
Every. Possible. Way.
You didn’t address my argument. How is a caffeine pill supposed to substitute for my favorite moment in the morning - sitting down and enjoying a hot, delicious beverage?
The pill contains small robots that burrow into your brain and twiddle the neurons to make you THINK you’re enjoying a hot coffee in the morning
In reality, it’s shortening your lifespan by around 10 years every time. Small price to pay for white teeth, though!
Do you just take vitamin pills instead of eating food to get nutrients?
Not every way. Coffee is better:
Coffee tastes good.
Coffee is reasonably healthy, it’s a food not a pill.
Coffee is nice to relax with friends, it’s overall a pleasant experience.
On dose only, I agree. But why be efficient about eating and drinking? That doesn’t seem like a reasonable goal. I want to be inefficient about that. Stop and relax.
coffee tastes good with sugar, pills are better, not everyone likes pleasantries.
Not everyone uses sugar.
“Better” is subjectivefair
Coffee tastes worse with sugar, black is better.
If you’re only interested in the energy/wakefulness then you’re better off quitting caffeine altogether. The energy a regular user gets from caffeine is just the alleviation of withdrawal symptoms.
Meh, I travel a fair bit, and go hiking quite a lot, and keep a little pouch with a bunch of essentials in it, in my bag. Among those things are some caffeine pills. They’re light, cheap, and easily accessible when I need them.
I was never a coffee fan, but I do drink tea, and sometimes that experience is just plainly more pleasant than popping a pill.
I love going on a date with a woman to
*checks notes*
take caffeine pills. lolDoes pfizer make a viagra with caffeine?
I drink decaf. Where’s your god now?
I would probably still brew decaf coffee to go with them for the taste and smell.
