I'd like to apologize to the entire country for allowing this to have happened. I'm sorry.

Update

Made a small Tesco run and got some Yorkshire Tea. On with the day.

The weird thing to me is that their teabags seemingly don't have a string attached.

You don't need the string, just fish the bag out with a spoon or your fingers when it's done brewing.

That either creates more dirty silverware than necessary, or requires me to stick my fingers into hot tea! How barbaric a suggestion, really.

Eh, the string just disappears into the pot anyway when you pour the water over. Why not cut out the middle man?

[–] HerbalGamer@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You can hold on to the string when pouring the water over??

HOW WERE YOU EVER AN EMPIRE??

[–] VioletTeacup@feddit.uk 3 points 2 years ago

You can try, but it's like the string on peelable packs: it always breaks.

And our empire was built on keeping calm and fishing bags out of teapots.
