For Mother's Day this year Tim got me a Keurig coffee maker, with an auto on timer to help me start my days with two kids. I have spent the last several months taste testing several coffees and found a few I like. Until about two weeks ago, I found San Francisco Bay Coffee company through Amazon.com.
I was so thrilled to find these coffee pods, there is no plastic cup on them!!! So much less waste! I was sick about throwing away those little plastic cups everyday and now I don't have to. I chose to sign up for Amazon's subscribe and save program, where they automatically charge your credit card and ship your item on a regular basis, this brought the cost of the coffee pods down to 41 cents each, the cheapest I have found anywhere. One more reason I decided to get this coffee with out taste testing it was that for every 1 or 2 star review on Amazon the San Francisco Bay Coffee company personally responded and offered a resolution to any possible problem with the product.

I subscribed to the French Roast flavor of coffee, because it is considered their dark roast. San Francisco Bay offers 2 other varieties of coffee, I personally like coffee you can stand a fork up in. Their French Roast coffee delivers! I love the strong dark taste, and it's perfect with a little milk and a bit of agave nectar. It has an amazingly rich smell, and it goes down smooth and easy. I'm very happy we found these coffee pods and I'm also glad someone thought to get rid of those plastic cups. The only drawback to these pods is they need to be stored in an air tight container to maintain freshness, I put them in a Rubbermaid storage container I had laying around. The good part of that is they send you 3 vacuum sealed bags of 12 pods each so you are only storing at most 12 pods at a time the others can stay in their factory bags until you are ready to open them.
P. S. My aunt just let me know that Costco in Oregon carries these pods in a box of 80 for $26.00, or 32 cents/each.
