Coffee and a Two Year Old!

I don't drink coffee, but I had read about how good it is for your skin and getting rid of wrinkles and cellulite, so I had some on hand for beauty treatments. I had it sitting on my kitchen counter because I was going to try it combined with other ingredients, and in the mean time I was talking to my sister on the phone and Ashton came up to me and he had dark brown stuff all around his mouth and he said "breakfast". I thought "Oh, no!" and ran into the kitchen and saw that he had pushed a chair up to the counter and dumped the coffee grounds all over the counter and the floor and he bent down, dipped his finger in it, and said "Mmmm!" I quickly cleaned it up afraid of what the effects would be of coffee on an already very active almost 2 year old. Luckily I don't think he got enough to affect him. What surprised me was that he actually liked the taste of the coffee! I would think it would be bitter for him or something. I know I don't even like the smell of it, let alone the taste! Knowing that he likes it I now have to not only keep it out of his reach, but not even let him see it because he'll probably beg for more!
