Colombian Supremo

In Food and Drink on December 9, 2011 by John Layfield

Sorry coffee people, that’s the Republic of Colombia, not the District of Columbia. Try again.

To be fair, you have to let Ethnic Carving Man on the packaging there know who’s boss. Yeah, you’re number one, but number one at servicing America’s caffeine habit. Know your place, Ethnic Carving Man!

Feel proud as Fat Snowman Cop, Fat Snowman Sailor and Fat Snowman Some Guy salute while dangling head first from your (hopefully) red, white and blue Christmas tree. Although with all that heavy clothing, surely they’re going to melt and die horribly?
