I just got the book May we All Be Fed by John Robbins and he mentions these powdered grain drinks a lot throughout the book, he says they taste like coffee and make great hot drinks. Does anyone know what these are or where you can get them, I think they sound interesting.

It sounds like he's talking about postum. It's usually near the coffee at the grocery store. I've tried it and it's kinda good.

Thanks CodeMonkey, you are always so helpful.

The one I have at work is called Krakus Instant Coffee Substitute. (Ingredients are roast barley, rye, chicory, beet roots.) You can often find it in bulk, which is much cheaper.

yeah I just found one called Pero or Cafix, they have the same ingredients as the one you just mentioned, thanks kids.
