Coffee pods and K cups

Fred Adams
 

Are coffee pods and K cups pretty much the same and are they interchangeable?  Do the K cups have to be filled with coffee or can they be purchased with coffee already filled?  I have a Keurig coffee maker that I have always used with coffee pods and wonder if I can also use K cups with this coffee maker.  The coffee pods and K cups have always been confusing to me.  I will appreciate any info on this.  I know that we have different taste but I would appreciate hearing your preference on this.  Will appreciate any info.

 

Thanks much,
Carolyn Arnold
 

K-cups come with coffee in them.

I have a MainStay coffee maker from Wal-Mart and prefer it
to the Kureg, especially, because in this little, slightly
less than $20 model, I can use K-cups, but also a container,
where I can and do make coffee with grounds - way, way, way
cheaper and better too, I think.

I believe k-cups are made by Keurig and the word is legally protected, so other companies have to use a slightly different word even though the products are indistinguishable. You can buy little metal cups with holes that you can fill yourself; I have two.
But k-cups are already filled.

It sounds like you have the Main stay single cup coffee maker. Every place I
have tried to purchase one of these is out of stock. Thanks for your
response.

The refillable cups are called eco-cups. And you can purchase them at on Amazon.

You can fill your ears with music and your mouth with food, but, music won’t make you fat.
