Its wild that this is not The Onion or satire. Thats a press release on a corporate website.

    Im like 99% sure this is one of those press releases to get free plublicity. Usually they follow up with oh how they had scores of folks just begged them not to do it so they reluctantly will not follow through. You know the same bullshit trump tends to spew.

      I think Maxwell ground coffee has a lot of additives that are not coffee. Even if I am wrong, because I never heard of proof of that. Ground coffee in the USA is allowed things like a max percentage of ground up bugs. And because Maxwell buys coffee as cheaply as it can, one gets extra pesticides.

      I buy whole beans

    … they thought I wouldn’t use their product if I didn’t own a home? And someone was paid for this marketing idea?

    That’s amazingly tone deaf.

    “We know none of you can afford houses anymore, but look on the bright side— super cheap coffee dust!”
