World asks "Kofi, tea or bonox"?

Kofi Annan of Ghana is the seventh Secretary-General of the United Nations.
Coffee, tea or Bonox?
Bonox, a beef extract that can be made into a drink or used as stock was launched in 1919. It became something of a household name - it used to be common for people to offer 'Coffee, tea or Bonox?' to friends. Bonox is still sold in supermarkets today.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bonox is a beef extract product created in 1919, currently owned by Kraft Foods, and can still be found in many supermarkets today. Used as stock in cooking, or more commonly to create a drink. The latter use was notable for making the product a household name during its early existence, for which it became common to ask "Coffee, tea or bonox" when offering guests a drink.
