Trader Joe's "100% Hawaiian Coffee"
They had a big endcap display of this product today. Presuming that is
what they had brewed and put into airpots -- I tried a cuppette, with and without cream -- I decided to buy a can. But why didn't they describe it as "Kona"? They were very mysterious about the exact source of the coffee. |

They were very mysterious about the exact >source of the coffee. 100% Hawaiian does not mean 100% Kona and may I remind - Kona has been Great for 182 years(!), whereas other Hawaiian coffees are new. That's the reasoning. Thanks for your mentioning the mysteriousness aloha, Cea |

They've been producing somewhat okay coffee on Kauai for a few years. If you want Kona, buy Kona. |

Thick like you'd think it would just take a little to work up some good suds and cut the grease. But NOOOO! You gotta use a couple of big squirts!! My housemate bought it, and I told him it really sucks. And he said "Well, that what they had". :-( I'll be buying the dish soap from now on. John Kuthe... |

I know that, it's the surfactant content. But normally that means a very viscous dish soap. I just wonder what cheap viscous substance Traitor Joe's puts in their dish soap to fake ignorant people into thinking it's a quality product. John Kuthe... |
