You are also dependent on various natural chemicals in the food you eat. Does that make you an <insert chemical> addict? It makes no sense. I could also find some “socially bad” chemical in foods you eat and harass you and look down upon you for it.
You are targeting caffeine with the negative social reputation of cocaine. Chocolate also has caffeine, just like green tea, yerba mate, tea or coffee. Does that make you a caffeine addict? Makes no sense. A teaspoon of cocoa powder has 12 mg caffeine, roughly 1/3rd of a cup of green tea. A cup of green tea has half the caffeine of tea and coffee.
If your caffeine consumption is within medically safe limits, you are not an addict. Personally, I limit my caffeine intake to under 80 mg a day, 40 of which is green tea, then comes cocoa powder milkshake and chocolate products. In comparison, a Starbucks Venti has 330 mg caffeine, and a Red Bull and a regular coffee cup have 75-80 mg caffeine.
Anyone who consumes <insert chemical> does not become an addict by default. You yourself consume technology, and are not a hermit living on Himalayas. There is no “purity” in you, just as there is no “purity” in “drug addicts” you label coffee drinkers as. I am not even a coffee drinker and find it insanely stupid.

Half my message was specifically written to say that I don’t do this. People look like drug addicts to me. And I’m not looking down on drug addicts.
Yes, I’m not a fan of that either. Doesn’t mean, I can change it.

Yes, I did not say so.
