Loose leaf!

yes, weedy is right. loose leaf for sure but you can tear open the tea bag ad use a strainer. i got a couple--the kind that sits on top of cup is nice and easy. get the stainless kind. a ton of different stryle and not expensive. i love my earl gray tea every day

I wonder how the rest of us ever made it without getting our minimum daily requirement of plastic...
Since we chewed on the end of a BIC pen, could we get: "around 11.6 billion microplastics and 3.1 billion nanoplastics in a single day?"
I always drink everything thru a plastic straw, does that count?

I drink water out of a plastic bottle, even though it says "do not refill". Am I going to plastic heII now?
