“Starbucks gave the U.S. a lot of coffee culture.  They also gave us a lot of bad coffee culture…” ;-D Well said, MEversbergII! 

About all that has been discussed over loose leaf vs teabags and flavored tea, I used to be a little skeptical about the real quality difference. However, after the first shipment from Tea Hong, it is a trip of no return. Those from Teavana were used as potpourri and Tazo my deodorizer in the fridge! I don’t understand why people here are not selling real teas like Tea Hong. Is it a profit thing?
