So in case some of you feel like you're missing out, not really. Where I live Trader Joes carries such a limited/obscure selection that I mistook their tea section for the "medicinal" treatments of dubious efficacy, walked around the store looking for the "drinking variety" and was then told to go back where I started. That's when I noticed their meager coffee selection. More space was dedicated to the grinder than the coffee! I almost never find anything I want at Trader Joes that I can't get for a better price at the club stores, and generally I only go when I have a gift certificate or am trying to hunt down some exotic spice or ingredient for a recipe (they never have it). Maybe if I drank wine by the gallon I would do jumping jacks for Trader Joes, but… Trader Joes is not available to everyone everywhere.

Only problem is that our Sav-a-Lot store here closed and we have not been able to find McDaniels brand any place else. Does anyone know of any other stores that carry this instant coffee or maybe one similar? Thanks in advance for any help! I SO love the McDaniels coffee – even the instant.

I want to start a coffee shop and this would be a big help.

I am wondering if you are referring to ones from Spain or Mexico? I was curious and purchased the Pilon Bean coffee, unfortunately it was a very HARD bean to grind, I ruined my costly grinder and was rather upset. I have purchased coffee from spain and Mexico, and found them to be just as diverse as others. Oh and Peets coffee brand is the ONLY one I buy at grocery or retail stores. There are several brands mentioned here I haven't tried, but I will certainly give them a shot. I apologies as I forgot to comment on the Spanish coffee’s.

I only drink coffee I brew myself, I use distilled water which is a must, you will immediately notice a difference. Tanzania Peaberry, Ethiopian and coffee's grown at high altitudes in volcanic rich soil are simply WOW. I highly recommend Trader Joes for pricing and variety, from shade grown, to rare blends its a great way to teach your pallet the differences, you will be amazed at how quickly you learn. Maxwell House, Folders, Chock full-o-nuts, Yuban the list goes on are simply weak excuses for real coffee IMO. Also if you are a blond and sweet (cream and sugar) drinker like me, my advice is to ONLY use quality cream or half and half, and quality sugar if your going to drink fine coffee's. There is a symmetry between the oil of the bean and cream that is superb. I use white cane sugar as to not disrupt the taste of the coffee with molasses rich sugars. I use to be a Yuban and powdered creamer type, all of what I am now is due to Trader Joes. Evolution Baby! As for all the boo hoo profanity whiners, GROW UP. The word bastard is not classified as profanity, as are many other words which one might think are profane..Teacher needs to do her homework.

I intend to give them a try. At the expense of being booed out of the forum, I'm going to recommend another commercial coffee that I find very good- Dunkin Donuts Original whole bean. Good stuff.
