You see that Bull Terrier's nose? See that floppy pink tongue flicking over it? See that tongue carefully licking it's private parts? That's where your precious tea comes from, that is.

Tea is even more toxic than coffee with all those (gallo)tannines in it. Coffee is more addictive though...

Well, tea has been consumed for thousands of years and as far as I know nobody has every died from tea poisoning. Cases of coffee-related death, however, are well documented :lol: :-P

Coffee rules, my son  :-P

Having said that, I am not against tea. I am having a cup of Earl Gray right now, in fact (because I have run out of coffee).
Rooibos tea is the best there is. That's a nice South African tea, very good for you. There are copies here in the UK called Red Bush, but Rooibos is the original and best.

That's only because some health fanatics go overboard on the coffee enema fad.  :-P

Technically rooibos isn't tea, although I do enjoy the occasional cup.

Okay, I understand: rooibos is derived from a shrub, not Camellia sinensis, the tea plant.

Indeed. Also, I giggle in the general direction of the text on that packet of rooibos. Afrikaans is so cute ;-).

Hehe
If you heard me trying to speak Afrikaans, you would giggle some more. I haven't had to use it for many a year now.

Now now, odin. It's not their fault, it's just history.
