It is amazing how much this kind of thing depends on conditioning; there is a culture I read about recently where if someone sees you drinking coffee then they would ask you how you were feeling because it is considered to be a gross drink that you would only have when you were sick; tea would be the beverage of choice at all other times.

Oh, where is that? As an inspiration in case I decide to emigrate one day. 😄
I read it somewhere in a book I was reading on Buddhism and the nature of the mind; if I am able to find it I will let you know!
