Guest guest Posted August 30, 2002 Report Share Posted August 30, 2002 Hi All: There is another substitute called Roma. Available in most health food stores. Approx $6 for a 16 oz jar. One teaspoon per cup. It is Malt barley plus. Not bad. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Wow! What a simple, affordable and (sounds like) effective alternative to coffee. Thank you for the idea.

I went back to coffee, just less of it. And now I will try hot water! Thanks again.-Mary --- candocook <candocook wrote: > Hello Mary; > > I too used to drink a lot of coffee!
