How do our coffee-drinking habits compare with those of other nationalities such as the French, Italians and Brazilians? Even the strongest American coffee is mild in contrast with the black brews they prefer. Most of the coffee in this coun try is drunk from full-sized cups; most of theirs is drunk demi tasse. The majority of North. Americans like their coffee with cream, a commodity which is never served with Italian, French or Brazilian coffee. We share with them the drinking of coffee for breakfast, but theirs is mixed with hot milk, which is, by the way, their only deviation from the black. In each land, coffee has a different mean ing, a different place in daily life. None of these bears much resemblance to the American version, the bureau says. France is in many ways a country of frantic hurry. Yet the French have a deep capacity for the enjoyment of leisure. This is where coffee becomes an im portant part of French life. The tiny cup of "cafe filtre" is what the Frenchman sips as he idles away the hours at his favorite sidewalk cafe. He sits, he ob serves his fellow man, he soaks up the warmth of the sun or he turns up his collar against the rain. And he drinks his coffee hot and very black. With the exception of break fast, coffee is not necessarily an accompaniment to meals in France and is not included in the price of the restaurant table d'hote. Frequently, one has a demitasse with fruit and cheese for dessert, but mostly coffee is the great between-times refresh ment. "Cafe it is the drink for dreaming!" a Parisian friend said recently and that seems to sum up the French attitude very well. The French like thier coffee black, but the Italians like theirs blacker. Their "espresso" is as dark as a stormy midnight and so bitter that most Americans must add plenty of sugar to make it drinkable. It Is usually served with a sliver of lemon peel, a touch which makes Ital ian coffee a bit different from any other. The first small cup of espresso may be hard for the American traveler to drink, but if he stays in Italy for a while he will discover that he develops a real fondness for it. Sidewalk cafes abound in It aly, much as they do in France. But the Italians also have their coffee houses, many of them dat ing back hundreds of years. Rome, Florence, Venice, Naples each has its "most famous cof fee house and all of them do a flourishing business all day long and far into the night. "Espresso . . . espresso . . , In Italy you hear It everywhere and always. If French coffee is black and Italian coffee blacker, then Bra zilian coffee is blackest of all. In Brazil (and South America gen erally) they like it so opaque and heavy that it seems to have a kind of thickness about it. When it comes to sugar, Brazil ians like their "cafezinho" sweet. Two teaspoons of sugar to each tiny cup, that s about average, although some like it even sweeter. The greatest difference in the coffee customs of Brazil and those of Italy and France is in the frequency with which it is drunk. Coffee Is not only a part of Brazilian home life and so cial life, it is also an accompani ment to every hour of the busi ness day as well. It Is served In office, store and factory. The of fice boy drinks It as does the president and each employee in between. The customer gets his share, too. All in all, the urban Brazilian drinks about 10 cafe- zinhos a day, often more. The Frenchman thinks there is no real coffee t-xcept his beloved cafe filtre. The Italian likes his espresso, the Brazilian his cafe zinho. Like those who live in the United States, each has a deep loyalty to his own national brew. But all, including our selves, have one point in com mon: We all love coffee, one way or anoth r. And, in our own favor, it must be added that Americans seem to give fuller approval to it than any other country. At least, our per cap ita consumption is the highest in the world.
