Comment on Earl Grey tea intoxication (2022)

Comments

You know the saying, "anything in excess is bad".

Also I've never been fond of the Twinings brand of teas. They always had a super strong flavor.

At work we just cost-optimized away the better teas like Tazo and Stash but one station, interestingly in the blue-collar facilities area, started stocking Twinings. I do go down there for Earl Grey but was reminded that that particular one always seemed too bergamotty to me.

We ran a bakery for a while and sold a chocolate shortbread with bergamot oil, now I wonder if anyone ever had a reaction from our cookies. Probably not, I'm guessing you'd have to eat about $50 worth...
