Ichigo Kurosaki
<p>I just started watching the series and I'm about 4episodes in. </p>

<p>In episode 2 the shopkeeper old guy says: </p>

<blockquote class="spoiler">
  <p> Since ancient times, coffee is the one thing that ghouls and humans can enjoy. </p>
</blockquote>

<p>but in episode 4 when Touka got a piece of meat from a friend, she was in the bathroom drinking water and fighting to keep it in her body. </p>

<p>She didn't instantly vomit from the water but in episode 1 when the protagonist drank milk he did. </p>

<p>So based off of these observations, can ghouls actually drink water &amp; coffee? And if so are there other dietary things that float along this median line of edibility among both races?</p>

@IchigoKurosaki idk why I didn't think of that. If you post this as an answer I'll accept it and close the question.

I think it's just an exception. I've seen all of season 1 now and there are several scenes of different ghouls drinking water.
