Have you ever had coffee with chicory?

Yes, it is something that people usually drink for breakfast in Northern France and a part of Belgium. My mother was liking chicory, I am not very fond of it, with or without coffee.

I've never had it

Coffee should be coffee, to my way of thinking. If you add chicory to coffee you are adulterating it and can only be doing it to make the drink cheaper. Chicory root was first added to coffee, it seems, by the French in the early 19th Century when coffee supplies were short (because of a trade embargo by Napoleon). Chicory was added to make supplies of coffee go further and to make it cheaper. It's likely that it became popular in New Orleans because the French settlers there brought the habit with them. IN the UK, before instant, freeze-dried coffee became available, there was something called Camp Coffee which came in a bottle and was a coffee and chicory essence. The drink made from it was abominable but it did make a very good coffee cake and that is why we had it in the house. Coffee and walnut cake is my favourite to this day. The picture is of the very pretty chicory flower, not the root! Must have been a typo.

yup.it's gross.i don't like it. i agree with owlwings.

Good morning .Chock Full of Nuts.Is this good?taste etc.

I was told chicory root is a good alternative for coffee. I have some but haven't tried it yet. I love my coffee so not sure how I'll feel about it.
