Fresh coffee pouring into a mug from a drip machine

Look at this mysterious, bubbling hot, dark-brown liquid. What is it?

Some time during the early history of the world, the species of plants known as Coffea developed the toxic substance known as caffiene in order to protect itself from plant-eatng creatures. This was a mistake, because humans are idiots who eat toxic substances on purpose.

These days, a whole lot of years in the future, the drink made from the Coffea plant is the world's most popular psychoactive substance. We call it "Coffee".

Coffee is a hot drink made from coffee beans from the Coffea plants. However, these beans aren't beans at all, but seeds that resemble beans! The seeds are located withn the fruit of the coffee plant, which are known as "coffee cherries" despite being not cherries but berries or drupes. What's up with this?! This is a drink of lies!
