It really does cut down on the bitterness, neat.

          I'd expect it to solve the constipation by giving you diarrhea. Technically a victory, just not a good one.

          If you want something that does that, just use half and half or something like that with a lot of fat. If you use half and half or heavy cream, there is no good reason to add any fat.

              The Starbucks thing was so weird. I don't know how they expected that to hit outside of the Mediterranean. I'm a weird culinary person, salt and olive oil really can go in absolutely everything, I defend savory ice cream with EVOO for reference. But I still have a hard time buying into EVOO coffee, being Starbucks coffee makes it an impossible sell.

              Maybe it would have gone better if Starbucks wasn't so. Seriously, with a proper coffee for it, I could imagine EVOO coffee being great. But not even worth trying if it's Starbucks serving.

                yeah I never tried it I think it was only at their flagship roastery locations, and I don't really go to starbucks regardless, but it was like... In the iced drinks too? so it gets all nasty and congealed? whyyyyyyy

                I didn't hate my evoo/espresso but it didn't add much to the flavor. There's a certain drink I've made at home that involved shaking an espresso over ice such that it foams up really nice that could maybe work with a little oil but I think it would still separate too fast
