To save the waitstaff in your favorite restaurant from having to carry around two coffee pots, the caffeine is in the creamers. Two little bowls on the table, one with caffeinated creamers, one with regular. Fill you cup with decaf and add as much caffeine as you want.-- Galbinus_Caeli, Mar 18 2007 Twin Pots TwinPotsMy inspiration. [Galbinus_Caeli, Mar 18 2007] Stok http://getstokd.comBaked? [TahuNuva, Mar 20 2008] ... and if you take your coffee black what happens ?-- xenzag, Mar 18 2007 [xenzag] Perhaps creamers without cream? Just concentrated caffeine solution? But that might water down the coffee. Hmmmmm.......-- Galbinus_Caeli, Mar 18 2007 how about the waiter/ess just brings boiled water, you add granules, and call it Instant Coffee ?-- xenzag, Mar 18 2007 Ewww.-- Galbinus_Caeli, Mar 18 2007 Or the waiter could just leave a little bowl of caffeine pills on the table for anyone who wants one - and then to save even more time and effort don't serve separate courses, just mix all the food up together in a bucket and leave it on the table at the start of the meal for diners to dig into.-- hippo, Mar 18 2007 Why go to the trouble of leaving anything on the tables at all when you could just have a trough that winds its way through the restaurant? Those who pay extra get to have the most choice by sitting nearest the point where the continuous torrent of homogenised food exits the kitchen.-- xenzag, Mar 18 2007 Isn't that what sushi bars do?-- Galbinus_Caeli, Mar 18 2007 Sort of. Bone not mine, by the way and have this croissant instead, for being so tollerant and for your original thinking. +-- xenzag, Mar 18 2007 Bone for even suggesting decaff as an alternative for...anything.-- AbsintheWithoutLeave, Mar 18 2007 'To save the waitstaff in your favorite restaurant'...and if your favourite restaurant happens to be pizza hut...would caffeine qualify as a topping...I could really go for a supreme with caffeine right about now!-- the dog's breakfast, Mar 19 2007 BAKED! Not creamers, per se, but I just saw these in a convenience store on my way to work. I was shocked. As if people weren't jacked up enough. Each creamer-sized container is a shot of caffeine equivalent to two cups of coffee.-- elhigh, Aug 06 2007 Not a bad idea [+] - but I'd prefer if all coffee was served caffeinated, and those who want de-caffeinated coffee could use methylene chloride-laced creamer to isolate the caffeine.
[elhigh] - creamer-sized containers with the kick of two cups of regular coffee sounds like pre-packed expresso?-- vincevincevince, Aug 06 2007 as a decaf-only drinker (yes, pity me, please) I bun. +
//and then to save even more time and effort don't serve separate courses, just mix all the food up together in a bucket and leave it on the table at the start of the meal for diners to dig into.//
Haha! Very good, [hippo]. Just like grandma used to make.-- k_sra, Aug 06 2007 BAKED!!
I don't know what they're called..Hang on.
Stok. That's what it's called. There's a website, too. I'm not sure it's 'creamer', per se, but here, the site says:
"Comes in a creamer-like container for portion control" "Black coffee shot"
And a lot of other stuff, but that's the jist of it. It's a black coffee shot. Maybe not Baked after all. [link]-- TahuNuva, Mar 20 2008 Oh, wait!!!
//add as much caffeine as you want//
That's dangerous. Stok says you shouldn't have more than 2 of their shots daily. Heart attacks and stuff, Google it if you want. Sorry, but that makes it a Bone. Killing people is bad for restaraunts' reputations.-- TahuNuva, Mar 20 2008 random, halfbakery
