I formally call for a coalition of canned coffee advocates who will toil with me until the day when we can enjoy each other’s company in the States beside our honorable guest — a vending machine that serves both hot and cold canned coffee.

I’m done with having to pay an outrageous amount for a decent iced coffee every morning at Starbucks. I’m also through with wasting time by sitting down to drink such a coffee. Here in Japan, I indulge in a new flavor of iced (and hot) canned coffee every day. Maybe if my precious cans of java moved to my home in the States, I would follow.

Here's the simple reason for my post: I love canned coffee in Japan, especially the

way it is delivered, and am frustrated that it isn't sold in the West in vending machines, both hot and cold. The West does have two canned iced coffee offerings (none hot) from the over-priced beast Starbucks — but only in limited convenience stores.

This will not stand. Please join me in my quest. Until we meet,
