“Freshness Date .. ? Hello ~ I am curious as to the "Use by" or Freshness date of this product, and has anyone ever noticed a difference if they've gone past that date?

Hi and thank you for your inquiry. The Best Use By Date is a guideline for optimal freshness recommended by the roaster; it is not an expiration date. The pods are nitrogen-flushed and sealed for freshness and impermeable to oxygen, moisture and light. You can be confident that due to the superior packaging of the pod your Keurig Brewer will yield a superior cup of coffee or tea. We hope this information is helpful.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I just got this yesterday. The best buy date is for September 2016. They will be all gone by then.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have never tasted any difference between "older" k-cups and brand new ones. They all pretty much taste fresh. I've kept k-cups for several months to over 2 years and was initially reluctant to use them. I did anyway and never had any problems nor did I notice any bitter or strange taste.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It was a few weeks past the "use by date" but I couldn't taste and difference in the flavor. I purchased at clearance price and I loved it.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I order coffee online very often and have never noticed a difference in taste
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I've found as with many "use by date", using product is fine as long as product has been stored in a dry area and has not been exposed to weather, either to hot or to cold. When I purchase any consumable products off the enternet, I look for the refund and return policy, just for the "in case" factor.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The date was good and had plenty of shelf life left. Also was great fresh coffee. I loved it.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I've never, personally, had an issue with this. We've bought kcups on discount that were a few months past their date and they tasted exactly the same. Coffee can't really "go bad" it guess if it's really old it might not be as flavorful but it's not going to be bad for you or harm you. I wouldn't worry about it...
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I never pay attention to the dates. These things last a very long time. I buy my k-cups in bulk and always have many flavors so some sit a long time and I have never had any issues.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have not noticed a use by date but I have had Kcupsmas that I have not used for months. There was not a difference in the freshness or the taste.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
