Coffee and cake prices

[Ries]

I have never had a cup of coffee, in seven decades. But I do drink mate every day, and it’s surprisingly affordable.
Plus the selection of quality organic brands has increased quite a bit in the last few years.
Eat local, complain less.

I don't care for the taste. I think a lot of people put a lot of sugar in it as well. Coffee is more popular in Buenos Aires from what I can tell; mate in the provinces.

I already know about the coffee prices. Please lets talk more about cake.

Apparently lots of Argentines are glad that there are now better coffee options, as evidenced by their presence in those cafes that have cafe de especialidad. I have Argentine friends that drink mate daily but also love a great cup of coffee. It doesn't have to be binary, and to imply that in order to defend Argentina somehow is just arrogant.

I like my mate amargo, but drinking too much of it gives me bad acid.

Coffee isn’t worth the expense these days but I do make a French press’s worth most mornings in the house, Super Cabrales is passable.

I am not implying anything.
Just like everyone else in this thread, expressing personal experience.
I dont care for the taste, or smell of coffee.
nonetheless I made it every morning for my wife for years.
I like mate.
