The Joke Carter Made When Cole Found Out About The Coffee?
What did he say that made him laugh until he cried?
It sounded like "The cat made me do it"

Scary thing is, this coffee actually exists. The cat that Carter was talking about is called a Civet. Apparently there's something in its digestive enzymes that removes all the bitterness from the coffee beans when it eats them.
So, yeah, the whole "You're sh*tting me" line meant Edward realized that the whole time, he was drinking cat sh*t! And yes, the cats certainly beat Carter to it.

I was wondering at what point that would come up. I'm a coffee fan and generally well versed in the subject. The timing was cinematically appropriate in my opinion.
On a similar note: wasn't it the civet cats which were the source for SARS in China. I guess I really should Google before posting...
Personally Im wondering which sick b*stard came up with the idea of picking beans out of poo to drink...
shareWell, the same can be said about who first came up with the idea of eating raw fish, or fermenting an alcoholic beverage with their saliva, or shoving organs into a stomach and boiling it.
Seems like there are many cuisines in this world that were probably founded on a dare.

Not really. Don't think those are the same at all. Examples you gave seem pretty natural. If your in the wild with no source for fire (ie dry wood), but have been able to catch a fish what else is there to do but eat it raw? And if you have no source for metal pots and pans but have a pretty durable stomach, boiling things in it seems like a pretty obvious idea. As is eating organs when you learn to waste nothing.
Making coffee out of cat droppings is in another league entirely.

Raw fish is awesome.
or fermenting an alcoholic beverage with their saliva
...not so awesome.
or shoving organs into a stomach and boiling it.
Ultimately, it's cooked meat.

I guess I'm out of the loop here--what do you mean by "shoving organs into a stomach and boiling it"? Is that something that the Mayans did or something?
I just want my kids back.

Yes, this is mayan sausage
I hope you leave enough room for my fist because I'm going to ram it into your stomach
I thought he was referring to the Scottish haggis.
shareYou should try Casu Marzu.
It's an Italian cheese that is deliberately infested with maggots.
The maggots eat the cheese and through their digestive process and excretion of the cheese, it results in a creamier, richer flavored cheese.
People often eat the maggots right along with the cheese as they're filled with the cheese and quite delicious.

I will NEVER EVER EVER eat cheese again. In fact I don't even think I am gonna eat the food I nuked for lunch. Suddenly I am not so hungry and my skin is crawling......this is really one time I wished we stayed on the coffee....poopy or not!!
shareCasu Marzu!! OMG people are missing out dude, that is some good cheese.

Hey Jin! You better not be cheating on me!!
I find it not believable that someone who drinks kopi luwak ALL THE TIME does not know the story behind it. Pretty ridiculous.
shareAgreed. There is no way he didn't know the story behind that coffee, but then the characters weren't nearly as well developed as they should have been. That script had some serious issues.

I respectfully disagree. I've met many people over the years that insist on the "best" for the sake of status without having a clue (or even really caring) why it's considered the best. Obviously there were some plot holes as one could probably argue ALL scripts have holes, but I think this particular one wasn't one of them.
shareThis movie was absolutly boring, but at least I did learn something new.
I agree those characters weren't developed as they should have been.
I would suggest the movie: My life without me, instead of this one.
Yeah, I found it hard to believe he didn't know how it was made too.
