This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

From my limited experience of drinking decaf, it usually tastes more watery. Probably wouldn't visit that coffee shop again if their coffee was watery

I don't think it was a coffee shop. Actually a lot of restaurants do this. Some people can't have caffeine and they'd rather not risk accidentally serving them the wrong thing when they order decaf.

I'm mostly fine with caffeine but if I drink those energy drinks I get really ill, it's weird. I can down espressos wouldn't have a problem, but there's something in the energy drinks that make me ill.

Probably one of those caffeine replacements they use. What's the big one? Tourine or something.

They generally have quite a few other things in them that could make you feel sick. Like a ton of b vitamins and various herbs. It could also be you react badly to the sweeteners in it.
