Subject: not to be rude but Stedman's has been....sm

Not to be rude - it IS coffee grounds that one can vomit and when used as a noun, but when it's used as an adjective, it is coffee-ground emesis....I suppose it could be an either-or so I'm not giving anyone an argument.  Just have seen Stedman's be wrong on many occasions and I don't use Stedmans as a result.


To each his/her own....


additional info:

coffee-ground emesis is old blood in the vomitus, coffee-ground vomitus.
