Coffee.

Where would we be without it?

Coffee stats from a study earlier this year from Drive Research confirm what most coffee drinkers already knew, and if you don't drink coffee, you may be inclined to learn a little more about it.

73% of people drink coffee every day. Yours truly included in that number.

48% of people agree that coffee benefits their health. 100% of coffee drinkers agree that if they didn't drink coffee, the health of those around them would be in jeopardy.

Seriously though, a study found that people drinking 1.5 to 3.5 cups of coffee daily have a 30% decreased mortality rate. More than 4 cups per day may lower the risk of a stroke.

With October rapidly approaching, my duty as a coffee drinker is to inform you that National Coffee Day is on 9/29, and International Coffee Day is coming on 10/1.

Wyoming is ranked #12 in the US, with 4,127 people per coffee shop. That's pretty impressive, considering the state has a population of less than 600,000.

Coffee is so popular in Wyoming that there are multiple local coffee shops in the state's top five cities. Add convenience stores, restaurants, and grocery stores selling coffee, and you could almost choose a different place to get coffee every hour of the day for multiple days.
