Yeah, I love Americanos. When I'm at a coffeeshop, it's either a FP, pour-over, Americano, or straight black coffee, in the order of preference.
There's a silly game that I like to play with all the cute baristas at the coffeeshop, I order a: large, low-fat, mocha latte made with decaf espresso and a splash of soy milk and extra sugar, please...psyche!

Go to Starbucks and order an Iced Decaf Venti No Shot No Pump No Whip Americano

Question for you Coffee 'Guru's". What kind of coffee does Dunkn donuts usually use? Is it their own brand? Does it depend on where the store is at? And overall ow good/bad is their coffee over the other brands you have named?

Down right sucker for a large French Vanilla with a splash of milk. Best tasting coffee out there. Avoid the sugar packets and youll be fine. I prefer the lighter tasting flavors, the heavy duty ones (star bucks) taste like shit

Nope. When I want a milkshake, I have a milkshake. When I want coffee, I have coffee.
Laugh to myself all the time when I am behind people in line at the coffee shop who order triple milk, double sugar and a low-fat muffin.

I love a good cup of coffee, why would you mask the taste? Adding sugar and cream to coffee is like putting ketchup on a steak. Can't really say you're enjoying the steak anymore, can you?

Actually I equate it to putting milk and sugar in my scotch, because I am sure lots of Americans put ketchup on their steak.

I have been IFing (well, Renegading) for about 6 weeks and its going very well.
I do find myself having a bit more coffee on my fast even if only to have something to fill my stomach. Its better now, but the first few times it was tougher.
Far from a coffee snob, but I drink it black and genuinely like the taste of coffee.
Have a Keurig mostly because noone else in my house drinks coffee and I dont want to make a whole pot or else I will drink it.
Starbucks or Timothy's k-Cups, once in a while I buy some beans from the roaster down the street and pack my own k-cups.
My 1 vice when I fast

Never seen any N.American do that. They're actually a lot more conservative with ketchup than Brits.
I routinely get wtf looks here when I put ketchup on mashed potatoes or eggs
