Considering the long days that Mashgichim put in and the hundreds of miles that they drive daily, it is no surprise to hear that most mashgichim rely on coffee to keep them going. While caffeine is a plus for those who work in an office, for those out on the roads those 10 minute coffee stops are quite literally life savers. Let us take a moment to understand if there are any kashrus concerns with picking up a coffee while traveling on the road. This question was presented to the OU poskim Rav Schachter and Rav Belsky. The primary ingredients in plain black coffee (water, sugar and unflavored coffee) are all group 1, acceptable from any source. http://www.oukosher.org/index.php/common/article/drinking_coffee_on_the_road/
