DO WE DRINK TOO MUCH COFFEE? (article)

BBC article on coffee consumption worldwide

This article has reactions by people to the bcc article above

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-22702288

And this from a Chilean student of mine:

Actually I prefer tea instead off coffee, but it doesn’t mean that every Chilean has my same likes J

In Chile, we use to have the “the tea time” or known as “once”, is a meal between lunch and dinner, in Argentina it’s like “merienda”. In this meal the Chilean people use to drink tea, that’s why the name “Tea time”. So thinking about this we can infer that Chilean people prefer tea, although there are a lot of starbucks and other coffe places in the city.

I hope my answer will help you!
