How old were you when you started drinking coffee? Not the first time you tried it, but when you really started to drink it consistently?
A survey of coffee drinkers found a third have been drinking it since they were a KID. And some of us were VERY young. A full 15% said they weren’t even a teenager when it became a regular thing.
36% were over 21 when they started, and another 28% were between 17 and 20. But 17% were between 13 and 16 years old . . . 7% were between 10 and 12 . . . and 8% were even younger. That includes 3% who were under the age of SIX.
There’s no solid proof that coffee stunts your growth, by the way. So that’s just a myth. But five years old still seems young for a cappuccino, right?
People were also asked how old someone SHOULD be before they start drinking coffee. Only 13% said before you’re a teenager. But 2% think your five-year-old should be drinking it.
