I really prefer coffee-flavored coffee.

1. I had a grandmother who ate coffee grounds. I always thought it was bizarre.

But then I come from the land of pica, where people, particularly pregnant women, eat some wierd shit, like soil. Sounds terrible but it's supposed to be the body's astounding attempt to address mineral deficiencies. Poverty at its finest.

2. Sad -- one Christmas season when I was visiting NYC, there were all these pica stories...

...except I think women were eating something like powdered laundry starch
right out of the box in the stores.

3. Yep, that's a popular one. Wild.

5. My mother admitted to me once that she used to eat dirt as a little girl.

She grew up in North Dakota, and didn't have any diet deficiencies that she was aware of. But of course it's true that North Dakota has lovely rich dark soil.
So maybe she just liked the taste.
