Father, it has been six weeks since my last coffee.

Try keeping away from caffeine indefinitely and see how you go. On Wednesday, I consumed two alcoholic beverages which, due to using Coke as a mixer, technically had caffeine in them. Also, I understand certain kinds of chocolate contain small amounts of caffeine.

It made me think about how difficult life must be for those who are severely allergic to certain chemicals found in food, ie. consume and die. I haven’t heard of caffeine doing that to someone in small amounts, but it’s plausible that there are loads of chemicals not commonly listed on food packaging that could be harmful to someone. Do these people have to grow their own food or what?
