I used to drink purely black coffee. However, over the course of a few months it would leave my teeth stained in such a way that only a professional dental cleaning could fix. I care very much about my appearance, and I also care about saving money at the dentist's. So I started putting a little bit of cream in my coffee, just to keep it from being teeth-staining black. No sugar, though.

I prefer my coffee black, and only a few times a year. My body does not like caffeine.

Tea is the beverage of a lesser society; it's for people who have no regard for their fellow man, who have bodies but no souls.

Coffee is the thinker's drink as well as the doer's drink. Coffee is the reason the West is so great. Coffee is the finest beverage on God's green earth.

While it may seem that lighter-colored coffee would stain less, the same pigments and acids are present in coffee with cream as black coffee; thus, adding any sort of whitener to your coffee will not prevent your teeth from becoming stained, unless you put significantly less coffee in your cup to make room for the cream.
