I decided to have a green tea because it's healthier than soda. It's healthier, right?

Almost all teabags contain plastic. They're heat sealed. Remember, if you're old enough, they used to be stapled closed?
Yep capitalism is awesome.
Some still are. Bigelow I think.
But loose leaf tea is much better quality anyway and avoids the issue of what's in the bag entirely. They also have ceramic filters so you can completely avoid having plastic in contact with hot water
Yeah although a lot of it comes excessively packaged too.
I need to find a food coop that isn't overtaken by bougie morons with their activated biodynamic dolphin certified almonds and fulfils the original purpose of bulk bargaining by disempowered proles.
Loose leaf is excessively packaged? Normally when I buy loose leaf I just get a tin that's full of tea and nothing else.
I often find that the tins come individually wrapped and have a plastic seal. They're also just like pointlessly small and wasteful metal containers that aren't reused. Idk it's the whole world really. Better than bagged for sure, just also frustrating.
Tea itself is often exploitative and I just want to fill up a 2 L jar with it :(
Staples have glue holding them in a cartridge ugh.... I'd rather have heat sealed nylon(more durable) tea bags
I'd rather just buy loose leaf and use a washable strainer. It's generally less expensive and higher quality too.
