Coffee is 'harmful' for people, the European Union said, because it forbids the use of caffeine as a pesticide – fear that the beloved drink will be quickly focused on regulations.
According to scientific evidence, EU bureacrats said in a report: “Caffeine is harmful to people when it is swallowed.”
They said that the stimulating agent, an important part of coffee, can be harmful to the heart, cause fear and cause problems with sleep, hydration and body temperature.
The report came to support an EU decision to prohibit the use of caffeine to kill nuds and snails on potato and cabbage patches.
But it has led to fears that coffee will soon be able to immediately become the target of the EU regulations.
Danish Mep Other Vistisen thought it was an unnecessary intervention by the EU: 'Where does this all lead? Do they eventually seriously force us to drink decaffeinated coffee? It will be ridiculous.
“Nobody thinks smoking and whiskey are good for you, but they add pleasure to the lives of many people.”
Trique was also exploded on X, where a user said, “The EU has lost the plot.”

Another weighed firmly to say: 'No. This is where the line must be drawn. '
Someone else was also very clear about their feelings about this: “The only thing that is harmful to people, as I see, as EU regulations.”
One user was completely negative from the attacks on caffeine: 'Do they have nothing better to do? Please f *** off. '
Another was convinced that the continent would not allow the clamp: “I am pretty sure that France and Italy do not allow this.”
The most important whip of the Patriots for Europe Party made a comparison with the EU's attempt to limit Coumarin in 2013, a compound in cinnamon that can be toxic if too much of it is consumed. It would come down to a ban on the Danish cakes.
Only a protest from bakers saw the sweet treat again categorized as a 'traditional' food, so that it could be treated as an exception to the ban.
Mr Vistisen said: “It would fit everyone much better if many of these things were left to national competence and personal choice.”
Other EU bans, on titanium dioxide and other dyes, have also hit bakers hard, forcing them to stop or at least rework certain recipes.
