Starbucks coffee beans are still sold normally when they are about to expire.

During the visit, the reporter found that most of the coffee beans sold at the Starbucks coffee shop in Taiguhui are temporary food. Among them, the best date for a Kenyan coffee bean is October 27, 2012. According to the time the reporter visited on October 23, the product is only five days away from expiration. The staff told reporters that generally 40 grams can be mixed with two cups of coffee, so it is calculated that a packet of 250 grams of coffee beans can be mixed with about 12 cups of coffee, that is, consumers have to drink 2-3 cups of coffee a day within five days.

According to the measures of Guangzhou Municipality on Supervision and Administration of Food beyond its expiration date (draft for soliciting opinions), if the shelf life is more than half a year and less than one year, the coffee beans sold by Starbucks will be regarded as "temporary expired products" 20 days before the expiration date. The measures stipulate that the food approaching the expiration date should be centrally displayed and sold in the store, or a Chinese logo should be affixed to the food packaging to make necessary prompts to consumers.
