I don't drink coffee and yes its true that microvae heated KDD choc milk tastes way better ... and don't complain about shipping costs and what not, mcdonald's and subway are american brands too and they're the same price (almost) as in america and everywhere around the world (not sure about britain though, dang even a bottle of water costs 400 fils more than here and they got rivers and freshwaters all around!)
