In the real currency that Seattle residents care about, that amounts to 2 12 ounce, double-shot nonfat peppermint mochas per week, an expense I would incur without thinking about it, making the Newtons a bargain given that the training effect I get from them doesn't wear off in a few hours

Chris, drop the mochas and get them!
