I have a question about K Cups

they are same, but some come up with decaf and sweet one have more sugar and some have calories mentioned on them. try some sugar free hot chocolate k cups

I ordered a reusable k cup so that I could still have my community. I got mine on Amazon and it should be in later this week. I'd like to try some of these other flavors,but I don't want to take in 100 extra calories every day

Congrats on the Keurig! I really wish Community would get on board and offer their product to the K cup market.

they couldn't, without Green Mountain. One of the owners of a shop around here that sells wholesale and retail K-Cups told me that all K-cups are manufactured by the same company, Green Mountain. Until last month, it was proprietary but the patents on two pieces of the machinery were expiring.

He said that was going to open up the K-Cup market for other companies who wanted to manufacture their own but not go through Green Mountain. Including his. he sells to a lot of businesses in bulk and wanted to sell a 'house' brand to them in the K-Cups and now he'd be able to.

I am not sure how much of this is accurate - we had the conversation a few months ago.

But he told me that with the expiring patent, Keurig was developing a new unit (which ended up being the Vue system) so that it can capitalize on new technology since the patents were running out on the old one.

So they are pushing the new Vue now.

The guy also told me that Starbucks was coming out with their own machine about the same time as the patent expiration and I'm assuming that ended up being the Verismo.

What I am hoping is that with the patent expiration, Community can manufacture their own since they'd be able to do so now, without going through Keurig.

Until then, I use the Reusable K-Cup for my Community coffee and if they never do release K Cups for Community, I've gotten pretty accustomed to this and it works when I just need a single cup.

You have no culture and are a lazy fat slob

If you don't like them for whatever reason, that's fine. State your beliefs once unless explicitly asked.

Don't go in every Keurig thread and be a douche about it. Seriously, that crap gets old.

Seriously that guy is one of the most detestable count of all time. If he died of pancreatic cancer tomorrow, this would be a better forum.

Now, now. C'mon. Not worth all that.
