Why the Keurig K-Cup is the beginning of the end for great coffee « Muddy Dog Roasting Co.

I haven’t been writing on my Tumblr a lot, so I’m trying to ramp it up a bit. About K-cups, and why the author isn’t a fan (via kottke):

“Wow, that’s great!”, you say. Cheap K-cups for all! That’s the American Way, after all, isn’t it? Um, yeah. Not always, but for the last 50 years or so, it actually has been, and it shows no sign of turning around anytime soon. So along with giant boxes of Twinkies and 5-gallon buckets of Gatorade, you’ll be able to buy junior skid-loads of shitty K-cups that are almost free at your favorite warehouse club. Hell, they’ll probably package a quasi-disposable brewer free with the largest box of cups, and you’ll get a new one every time Martha Stewart Living decides that the color of your last one is so last year.
