It has a smooth creamy taste, perfect for making lates or cuppacinos.<br /><br />I discovered it 5 years ago during a trip to Samoa and have been buying it ever since everytime I go back. So don't deny yourself a decent cup of coffee anymore.Xavier Dimantehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06424517043866986960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11176900.post-5788657351122131872009-10-15T00:21:11.327-11:002009-10-15T00:21:11.327-11:00I thought I was the only person to use the cheese ...I thought I was the only person to use the cheese grater method.

Yes, nods to you on that. <br />My presumption that you are a Bay person into dessert coffee and Starbucks et al; I thought you would say coffee is for after dinner. However, from the pic, it seems that you use kalo and koko as a meal. That works for me too. I am not fond of jelly on my kalo, but hey, if it makes you happy, go for it. <br />So question, does that mean that the students make tea and meals for the teachers at your school? There are no lunch ladies? Could you take a pic of the school cafeteria and lunch ladies/staff? What are the kids consuming while staffers are having tea or lunch?<br /> And finally, did you know that Starbucks makes a chocolate banana Vivanno? It is a fave of mine, but I think it would be wayyy better if it contained koko Samoa! Check it out on the Starbucks page and I am sure you can refine it for your tastes.<br /> I've thoroughly enjoyed the cultural explorations of white Sunday, ATM and weather posts. Please keep up the blogging. Faafetai tele :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11176900.post-84502108698015365872009-10-14T03:27:45.432-11:002009-10-14T03:27:45.432-11:00Hi.

But I'm glad you are there doing what you're doing so I can read your post while I drink it. I look forward to it each day.
