    While cleaning out the store closets today, I found a large box of sealed bags of Eight O’Clock Ground Coffee… the box is dated 09/07/08…

    Hmmm. I mean, the bags are airtight, right?

      Look for the date. It's probably fine.

          Only one way to find out. Apparently, it does not go 'bad' like molding or anything, but it can oxidize in the bag. Make a pot. Report back.

              I’m thinking it will likely just not be very flavorful, which being the brand it is doesn’t say much…

                  I have no idea whether it will be any good. That's why I want you to make some, drink it, and report back to us.

                    I would not even try it. Bin it.

                      I would toss it once I saw the brand regardless of the expiration date.

                      Not quite true, if it weren’t expired I would drop it at the food bank

                        Wouldn’t coffee just lose its taste and become unpleasantly bitter but otherwise quite harmless?

                            That’s what I’m banking on. I figure this will work as a trial run for the post apocalyptic wasteland…

                                  Even if not edible, should still make passable fertilizer, no?
