You have me on a mission now to source only organic tea and to read labels carefully, oh why does life have to be so complicated...tea drinking was always just a 'simple pleasure' now even that is fraught with danger, think I need a cup now, better check it first.

Now I'm not sure about that. I guess you have to be careful with everything. It makes you wonder how this was allowed in the first place.

I'm just not a Lipton fan. However, even though I buy the majority of my tea (and all my loose leaf tea) at the Spice Merchant, I don't see anything about organic on their web site. You would think with the prices they charge for their tea, it would be made in heaven and harvested by angels (grin).<br /><br />I'm off to look for a camera today. It will be fun to see what I can buy that is affordable (affordable for ME, that is). And here's my play on words for today's tea post:<br /><br />http://alteredbooklover.blogspot.com/2012/05/tea-towels.htmlBleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6286810285968169864.post-26990720340758921872012-05-01T06:23:15.448-07:002012-05-01T06:23:15.448-07:00My daughter religiously buys organic all the time....My daughter religiously buys organic all the time........me?......not so much.......its just not high on my list of priorities....i cannot bring myself to pay more for it.
