CapColombie

I found my favourite instant coffee (not a true oxymoron, but close) 20% OFF at Foodland today. Last week it was 100 grams - this week it is 80 grams (same price).

I wonder if Nescafe tradmarked "Cap" as a cool shortening of "Capturing"? Then maybe they can join the RIAA in their persecution of all who use file sharing technologies. "Cap" has become the generalised form of VidCap, DVDCap and TVCap. Who knew that a legal time shifting or backup of your own media might constitute a trade mark infringement against the almost-evil foodstuffs multinational?

Anyway, if you haven't tried it (the coffee, that is), these reviews from a few years back are pretty accurate. Then go out and get a 100g jar while you still can. Or better still, a 500g can while you still jar :-)
