Interesting Food - Tea

According to the advertising watchdog in the UK, pyramid shaped tea bags do actually make a better cuppa than round ones.

(Following an advertising complaint from round baggers Tetley (my favourite cuppa), they concluded that the pyramid shape did allow the tea to move more freely, releasing more taste. The tests showed that the infusion of tea, at 40 seconds and two minutes into the brewing process, was greater when using a pyramid teabag than when using a round teabag.

IMHO what really matters is what tea is inside. I don't like PG because it has an orange colour. Hubby calls it monkey tea, but i'm sure there are people who prefer it. My mum would mock anyone who used a tea bag, but surely it's simply a matter of personal taste.)
