Coffee is a beverage, served hot or with ice, prepared from the roasted seeds of the coffee plant. These seeds are almost always called coffee beans. Coffee is the second most commonly traded commodity in the world (measured by monetary volume), trailing only petroleum, and the most consumed beverage. In total, 6.7 million tonnes of coffee were produced annually in 1998-2000, forecast to rise to 7 million tonnes annually by 2010. [1] Coffee is one of humanity's chief sources of caffeine, a stimulant. Its potential benefits and hazards have been, and continue to be, widely studied and discussed.

Technically, I think it's a fruit. And studies have shown that it's a very good source of antioxidants. Do a Google search for "coffee" and "antioxidants" for some recent articles.

As for me, I go through about three or four pots of coffee a day. :-)

No. "Coffee beans" are seeds of fruit in fact, coffee cherries have two "beans" each .
