I have been drinking my coffee black for years. I gave up sugar in
coffee close to 40 years ago. I never was a big fan of sweet drinks.
When I was working and getting coffee at coffee shops I could not get
them to put little enough sugar. I was only putting about 1/4 teaspoon
in and counter staff had trouble dealing with that, so I just cut it out
completely. A few years later I eliminated the cream. I can drink
coffee with a little cream in it but not sugar.

My wife likes cream in her coffee. It has to be proper table cream, not
that half and half stuff, and not milk. If she can't have cream she
drinks it black.
