Good news, people! If you've spent the past decade worrying about Dave Grohl and his unhealthy love for coffee after witnessing his addiction in Them Crooked Vultures' 2010 viral video FRESH POTS!, the Foo Fighters frontman has now finally found a cure: FreshPotix.

In a new (spoof) advert for the product, Dave reflects on his worrying FRESH POTS! days some 10 years ago, explaining that he was "in the grips of a debilitating caffeine addition".

"My ability to maintain personal relationships and solid bowel movements were compromised by crippling sleep deprivation and noxious coffee breath," he sighs. "As the bean took over, I found myself doing anything for a fix. My roast grew darker and darker – until I finally hit pot bottom."

Indeed, the advert then flashes to Dave doing all sorts of gross things with ground coffee beans – like eating coffee sandwiches and rolling coffee joints while on the loo.

Happily, though, the musician was lucky enough to come by new drug FreshPotix, which – despite some very questionable side effects such as 'Violent Fits of Rage Towards Left-Handed People' and 'Severe Monkey Peen' – saved both Dave and the Foo Fighters as a whole.

"With FreshPotix, I no longer have to shoplift or sell my body for that fantastic buzz that kept me awake for 36 hours at a time and sent me to the hospital for a CAT scan and psychotic evaluation," Dave enthuses (referring to a very real hospitalisation back in 2010). Hooray for FreshPotix!
