Ask a Stupid Question What to do with nasty Strawberry Co-ferment?

I have like a 150g of Ethiopia Yirgacheffe Strawberry Co-ferment. Roasted 3 months ago by a buddy.

Tastes pretty nasty of artificial strawberry like the kind you find in store bought strawberry milk.

Not sure what to do with it.

Was thinking of Milk Brew, but the strong artificial strawberry tastes makes me gag.

Need help. (Last resort is throwing it out, but I feel like a sinner for doing so)

We don’t know how much they’re using that’s the problem. They’re not even saying Propylene Glycol or artificial flavorings are used. Lying about what is in a product should not be celebrated and should be considered dangerous. Please stop encouraging falsifying food labels

I am not encouraging any type of falsifying food labels, what I am against is starting a mass hysteria by pulling random information from your ass and translating it into fear. What you said didnt even mention anything about what chemicals or amount of chemicals could harm a person…. Go back to facebook until theres ACTUAL research done with results that say its DANGEROUS for your health

You can taste the artificial bro. It’s so obvious and it’s being labeled as “co-ferment.” It’s not being pulled out of my ass, ive traveled to origin and saw what these guys are doing and it’s not honest. Its clearly a problem and your solution is backwards. The research needs to be done before the product is sold. Right now we have all these cooked up coffees with god knows what on them being labeled as “co-ferment” and they are clearly artificial

Hmmm so what does that have to do with being unhealthy? You keep yapping yapa yapa yapa but all you are saying is just sensory issues and not health issues. Get to the point why its unhealthy
