That's like buying coffee beans that came out a monkey's butt.

Cat. Cats eat the beans. Specifically the civet.

Personally I would consider paying $400 for two really nice melons.

If I get to play with them for a whole night.

I had that civet poop coffee. $12 for a small cup. Very smooth taste, kind of like between coffee and tea
