When do these expire? No date on my packages

On my packages of Ghirardeli Hot Cocoa, I found the expiration dates on the lower back of the main carton, and also on the right hand side of the individual packets. Expiration date 093021 (which is written Month, Date, Year) or expires Sept 30, 2021. Beside it is code for the batch #. The full expiration ID is written as: C487041 093021. Enjoy!

What are the 4 flavors (blind)?

This particular product is two boxes with 8 individual packets all the same cocoa flavor.

Why in the world is silicon dioxide added to this?

Silicon dioxide is found naturally in many plants, such as: leafy green vegetables beets bell peppers brown rice oats alfalfa Silicon dioxide is also added to many foods and supplements. As a food additive, it serves as an anticaking agent to avoid clumping. In supplements, it’s used to prevent the various powdered ingredients from sticking together. As with many food additives, consumers often have concerns about silicon dioxide as an additive. However, numerous studies suggest there’s no cause for these concerns.
