I love coffee and I love sugar (and tea and chocolate for the record). This is clearly a typical human response. I am also unhappy about their history and their present conditions of production.
This episode is dedicated to understanding the history & why I think these things are luxuries - and should be somewhat condiered so - but also that treating the people producing them will not only make ALL our lives better but preserve the agricultural health of the planet.
Seriously - good working conditions for agricultural labor only makes all human life better. It ain't bad for the animals either.
Anyway - hit me up if you are playing around with coffee cherry products.
FYI - Here's one translation of Bernardin St. Pierre's Diary. I was not making it up:
