There's a tv show here called Marketplace, todays was about testing Tea. They had several different brands of green and herbal teas, claiming to be pure. They all contained pesticides. I guess the only way to go is to buy organic only.IP: Logged |

What? Oh no! I never thought about that. I can drink up to 6 cups of tea a day too...Good tip though. I'm definitely going to go looking for the organic variety. IP: Logged |

^ Good tip, thanks! I just realized Pukka and Yogi Tea, my favorite tea brands, are also organic. IP: Logged |

Great suggestion. What about taste? With tea, it's all about the taste. Have you tried it from here? IP: Logged |
