What's your opinion about adding chicory to coffee? I know there's a few places, like Café du Monde in New Orleans that offers coffee with chicory. It's also sold as a mix in grocery stores in France.

I started trying it recently by adding a small teaspoon to my coffee in my French press and it gives a really smooth brew.

What do you think? Are you a purist? Have you tried it? What's your opinion?

I have some and use it occasionally. I think I did 50/50 by weight and that wasn't my favorite, taste wise, but I was going for fiber content primarily. I might have to try 15% and see how that goes, given what some people have said.
