A good friend of our family has to avoid caffeine and she drinks a coffee substitute called Postum, which is made from wheat.? I've seen it on the shelves but she's the only person I know who drinks it.? I think it looks gross, but then coffee itself makes me gag, so I'm probably a bad judge in this category. --Debra -----Original Message----- From: JYoung6180@aol.com To: padutch-life@rootsweb.com Sent: Thu, 26 Jul 2007 7:04 pm Subject: Re: [PD-LIFE] Okra/Coffee????

I haven't seen that since the 1970's. My Grandma Berkheiser used to keep it in her cupboard, and I think it is made from wheat or some other grain. Rick B

I'm trying to think of where I saw that, and it must have been Redner's, because the NAME isn't unfamiliar to me. I never knew it was a substitute for coffee, but then again, I guess I was never curious enough to look at the jar. Lynn Rick wrote: > Is that stuff still around?
