My point is simply that not all recyclable items get recycled, for many reasons, and one of them is convenience (even though I fully agree it isn't very inconvenient to drop the empty K-cup into a recycle bin adjacent to the K-cup coffee maker).

However, if it isn't recyclable... But talking about convenience, we see your point, and agree, where we live year round. "Cardboard boxes must be collapsed for recycle pickup". Boxes that neighbors don't collapse get left by the recycle team and picked up later by trash. Inconvenient, I guess.
This recycle is somewhat off point especially since we don't own a Keurig but just noticed that the recycle is an issue with many. Our main point was really about the off patent and seeing the flood of others going to sell a similar product (that Keurig, Green Mountain, et al were making a killing on).
