Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

My second order came in a brown box unlike the first one that had a nice colorful label. Did not make much of it until I almost ran out of the first one and looked for the the expiration date. Upon close inspection, and comparing the first almost empty k-cups realized that the new brown box did not have an expiration date. I carefully inspected the new k-cups and noticed that the dates had been wiped clean. You can see the non glossy spot on all the units. Is this best practice how they get rid of expired product? Shameful and deceitful.
