This is like asking: People who eat food for the calories, why don’t you just eat dry primate food pellets?
Because there’s a big upside to enjoying the experience of drinking coffee with few downsides. If coffee was just caffeine dissolved in water it’d be a very different story
If energy drinks and tea weren’t a thing then yeah… but they are so I’m guessing not really.
Then again if coffee were the only caffeine option I probably wouldn’t have a caffeine addiction…
Me, unfortunately. Never picked up the taste for coffee, but I accidentally got hooked on caffeine through energy drinks, which are way worse for you. Now I’m trying to acquire the taste for coffee at a late stage to wean myself off energy drinks.
I drink coffee mainly for the caffeine but I’d prefer to consume said caffeine via the most delicious method. Why NOT drink coffee if I also like the taste?
Your question is actually “people who drink coffee for caffeine even though they hate the taste, why not use caffeine pills?” which targets an extremely slim demographic

Personally I only care about calories, I’m on board for food pellets if they actually worked and were healthy.
You may be a robot in that regard but you’re clearly aware that people enjoy the taste of food and coffee, right?
That’s why I said for the caffeine and not who enjoy coffee.
So you’re really asking about people who dislike coffee but drink it regularly anyway for caffeine? Are there a lot of people in this situation?
You don’t have to dislike, you can be neutral about it, not care about it, you just drink it for the caffeine.

I’ve definitely met people like that when I was in college. It was pretty uncommon though
Me. Milk and sugar makes it actually tasty.
