Guilty as charged :-) I chomp down on expresso beans and throw a few chocolate chips in for good measure, followed by a a big mouthful of water to wash out all the little pieces of coffee beans stuck in my throat. Now, if you follow-up all this with some drinkable coffee you won't crash as hard when the "beans" wear off.

I always go to the coffee beans when I'm in the darkest corner. I would describe them as almost magical, they even work on non-depressed people like my husband. If I could keep up the ingestion all day, I'd be set :-)

And those headache meds that work in slightly the same way I believe are Excedrin for migraines. Containing Acetaminophen (Tylenol), Aspirin, and Caffeine. Only drawbacks, eventually they don't work and you'll get headaches from not taking it (technically true for coffee beans as well) and the price. I have the generic version from Cub Foods, and my husband says they don't work as well.

So, is it the high caffeine content, and if it is, then why doesn't coffee (drinkable) work in the same manner. And why don't those nifty little caffeine pills work in a positive manner at all? Is it the "form" it comes in?
