Gelatin, fish bladder and beaver ass juice are a problem if you are vegetarian because they are all animal byproducts.

I am not a vegetarian.  I have a problem with beaver ass juice being used in my food.  Actually, it's got nothing to do with the beaver.  Any ass juice in my food is verboten.

See, that's where you lose me, because honey is delicious.

Beer is like porn. You can buy it, but it's more fun to make your own.

Is honey not regurgitated as opposed to shat out?

Maybe "mammalian ass juice" would be more precise, but I can't think of anything passed in that way that I care to ingest.  I also have no desire to seek out Kopi Luwak coffee, though if someone brewed a cup I might could be tempted...

I've been wondering if anyone's told the blogger about the teeming micro-organisms that produce alcohol!
It's such a fine line between stupid and clever.

Judging from her tone in the article, I'm certain she is familiar with yeast infections.   :P

Im pretty sure people will eat/drink anything. 
Imagine a natural raspberry flavored version of this coffee. It would be chock full o something.
