It is very habit forming but that's hardly a reason for it to be illegal.

Right. Eating is addictive. Drinking of course. And for a lot of people so is running, lol.

It's no more or less habit forming than actual grass in a very literal sense.

Moreover caffeine is proven to be far more harmful and orders of magnitude more habit forming than most illegal drugs.

Caffeine improves productivity so nobody cares about its impacts on our hearts.
