I have a couple lame ideas for our next guess. I don’t drink coffee but get dragged to Starbucks every once in awhile and consume other beverages, but I’m not sure how good of a guess either of mine would be. ---

Nope, beans are included in “all coffee products” in #1. My bad for not clarifying that, so this wasn’t an official guess/strike, and you may guess again if you wish. ---
