In many cases, coffee pods remain safe to drink long after their best by dates.

Additionally, when stored properly, you can even maintain the pod’s original quality after the best by date.

CAN expired k Cups make you sick?

Again, there’s no such thing as expired K-Cups—only K-Cups that are past their “best by” date. And even those are extremely unlikely to make you sick. Molds and bacteria are the main causes of food-borne illnesses. Because K-Cups are sealed to keep air and moisture out, even old K-Cups are free of these nuisances.
