randomdude360 04/19/18 8:07:47 AM #50:	Americans dont really drink instant coffee, thats the thing. In Europe we have kettles because most of the coffee we drink is instant. Relatively few people own a coffee machine or a pod coffee machine. Its very much a meme here of one of those things that everyone buys each other but nobody ends up using. Every office has one but its not common to see one in the home. Before you say anything, understand that American instant coffee is quite primitive compared to most places and in Europe you can get some relatively good ones. I dont use it anymore personally though because I like frothed milk which doesnt really go well with instant, so I use my nespresso machine. --- Not changing this sig until i can think of something better.
