Coffee
Coffee was discovered in 9th century Ethiopia, when—according to legend—a man noticed that his goats became much livelier after nibbling coffee cherries. One thing led to another, and now, many centuries later, millions of people can hardly face the day without a cup of this energizing, delectable beverage!
