Does decaf coffee really contain caffeine?

Littlemo

So I gave up my  2 cups of caffineated coffee and replaced them with 3--sometime 4 --cups of decaf. This is out of our machine at work--we're not talking Starbucks here.  I thought I was fine until a coworker told me that decaf has come caffeine in it too. Anyone heard of that? How could they label it decaf then?

oh christ....its ok to have caffine....even if decaf had some in it, you would still be ok...

Yes, but not enough to be of concern unless you're drinking pots and pots each day.

Yup. About the same amount of caffeine as tea.

I think it does have SOME but its like under the amount per serving or whatever where they don't have to say it has caffeine.  just like diet mt dew actually has like 2 calories or something like that

Some but not much - google it and see.....I'm sure it's out there somewhere.

It does, but  not enough to worry about.  Chocolate has caffeine, too.

I drank non-alcoholic beer the other night, and there is .5% alcohol in that.

Yeah don't worry about the caffine, there's only like 5mg per cup and you can have up to 200mg per day. so unless you're drinking more than 40 cups you're all set.?

Thanks. I know for most people it's okay to have some caffeine but after two miscarriages in a row, my doc specified no caffeine so I'm a bit neurotic about it.
