 again, weak comparison; we are educated in BCP now, she is famous and rich

 Mine tastes weak
 
 We have also bought Folgers for years, and for the past few months I've had to brew it on strong to avoid the sensation I'm drinking dishwater. 
 A close family friend works at Starbuck's and periodically gifts us with bags of whole beans.  Transitioning back to Folgers from Starbuck's lately feels like weaning off a drug.   
 I don't think I'm imagining that something about the quality of the product has changed!  No comparison
 How can you compare a family history of cancer (genetic cause) to all the multitudes of health problems caused by smoking (a voluntary choice).  That makes no sense at all!  Why should those of us who live healthy lifestyles have to pay for those who choose to be unhealthy?  If you get cancer because it runs in your family, that's a totally different thing.  There's nothing you can do about that.
 And I guess you never have a weak moment and wallowed in your own self-pity.
 
 . It's not really a fair comparison - that may be what she said to you (sm)
 but although it may not be true about you it doesn't mean it isn't true about her.  I am sorry she said that to you and I would never say any of that to my MIL or about her other than on here on an anonymous board.  But thanks for your opinion.
 Comparison very much valid. Having seen & followed

 Most of you missed the point!  It wasn't "in comparison
