Coffee good. PDF bad.

CBC has an interesting article about coffee and fats, which appears to have been based on the US version of a report with the same title (you can find it by clicking here).

Surprisingly, the Canadian version cannot be found on the CSPI Canada site, a site which appears to be way more outdated than its US counterpart. However, you can find the Canadian report at the CBC article mentioned earlier (so presumably newsorganizations get these reports first)

The essence of (both) reports is the same: there’s an obvious correlation between calories and specialty coffees. My favourite line:

A Tim Hortons double-double — with two creams and two sugars — has 160 calories per 10-ounce cup. A black coffee had about 10 calories and no fat.

One could safely claim that drinking black coffee could help the fight against obesity, but then, coffee is not one of the healthiest soft-drinks around.

Oh: my Acrobat breaks in Firefox. Actually, it also breaks when run standalone: apparently version 7 doesn’t like running 2 instances of Acrobat simultanously.
