    Coffee beans are laid out on a big sheet after roasting and then sprayed with flavor oils to create this kind of thing. So it’s no more or less healthy than any coffee, plus some flavor compounds that probably won’t give you cancer at those concentrations.

    Flavor-wise is up to your preferences. Coffee snobs are dorks, don’t listen to them. Obviously M&M flavored coffee isn’t something you hand grind for a pour over, you brew it up in bulk then add some sugar and milk to bring out the chocolate flavoring.

    Would I prefer a pour over with some fine cocoa powder? Sure. I also have time and energy to put into coffee. Some people need the coffee to put time and energy into them.

    There are some coffees that naturally have a very strong chocolate scent and let me tell you, it’s amazing! The “artificially” and the “Milk chocolate” are the problem here.

      Unfortunately those coffees tend to be a lot more expensive than just putting a bit of industrial science magic on some average beans.
