That's pretty funny... Did the product page say " Fresh "Chives"... Wink-wink, nudge-nudge "Chives"..."?
Also did you add them to your recipe, and were they groovy?
I found a twelve pack of what I thought was the same flavor as it was also peach tea. I didn't realize the new 12 pack was black tea instead. I got a refund for it but didn't need to return it.
this Black tea has a tad different flavor than the first pack. Also I think black tea has caffeine which isn't good for drinking before bed.
If the photos you took are of the new tea, and the stock image is of the old tea, then they are basically the same...
The tea in the stock image claims to be made with "Instant Tea"...
99% of instant tea is made with black tea unless it's specified as being something else like "green tea"... and actually, black and green tea both come from the same plant Camillia Sinensis (no relation to actor Gary Sinise), the only difference is green tea leaves haven't been allowed to oxidize like black tea and many manufacturers claim to pick more tender leaves for green tea, but that's unlikely...
In fact, Yellow tea, Oolong tea, and White tea are all made from Camillia Sinenesis too... and many commercial brands of tea mix black tea in with other ingredients like a filler to extend more costly ingredients and add robustness.
Instant tea is just black tea that's been boiled into a reduction, freeze dried and spray powderized to make it more easier to mix in cold water.
So unless you are specifically drinking tea that's sold as decaffeinated, you are most likely going to be drinking a caffeinated black tea mix.
The difference in flavor could be because of age or ratio of tea to peach flavoring... of which "natural flavoring" comprises "Less than 2%" of the ingredients for that brand...
I'm hoping the "natural flavoring" is some level of "peachiness" or "peaches and peach byproducts" and not something like "...bat and or rat droppings or various insects and arachnids that may have fallen into the processing machinery"...
Because pretty much if you threw a bunch of dead pigeons into the vat of chemical artificial flavoring you could say that since pigeons are naturally occurring and have a particular flavor, they are "natural flavoring"... I'm not saying that it's made with sky rats, but it's pretty sus that they can't add the word "peach" to "natural flavoring"... really, would it break the bank to write "natural peach flavor"?... It's kinda shady as hell to mention "Corn Syrup" which everyone is always up in arms about, but you can't muster a tiny bit of pride to specifically call out your natural peach flavor...
I'm not saying it's Subway Rat droppings, road killed possums that have been rotting in the North Carolina sun on I95 for several days, or even the internal organs from decayed beached whales (which can have a very peachy flavor if sun dried properly, and I've always kinda wondered what they do with those whales after they cart them off the beaches)...
I'm sure it's something much more peach-like that they use...
Probably...
Don't worry...
Its probably fine...
..hmmm then there's organs from decayed exploded whales (an Oregon delicacy).
Did they ship it to you in a diaper?
This thread just gets wackier and wackier! :D :D :D
They were not fresh per se. And every time I put them on a baked potato, I could hear this song playing...
...I had the 45 of this back in the 60s. The recording was one of the first to use what is known as a flanging effect (the "wooshing" sound heard.
Trippy back then.
I think the only time I ever heard that song clearly (it wasn't really a radio song) was in a "head shop" in the early 80s... In case the term Head Shop is not a widely known term, it was funkigroovidelic store that sold velvet black light posters, incense, fragrance oils, unique occult items, wind chimes, sometimes records, groovy jewelry (mostly "roach clips", aka joint holders), various handcrafted glass sculptures (bongs), and "health scales"... I think you see where that's going... basically it was where one could go to buy accessories for their "hobbies".
The place was called Yogi-Lala's and the (I think) owner was the quintessential grey haired mellow hippie... I used to go there to buy cheap glass eyes, which sounds weird, so I'm not going to explain that any further.
Whenever I smell patchouli oil or hear certain kinds of sitar music it reminds me of that place... also the owner, who'd I'd get into long philosophical discussions with on occasion.
I can make it wackier...
Ooh, ooh, the smell of patchouli... instant fond memory lane revisit of a headshop...tie-died T-shirts, haze filled shop, perpetually trippy music, and the ubiquitous bead curtain deliniating the sacred area where friends and some especially trustworthy customers would get to enter and sample the currently available crop.
I bought some patchouli scented incense sticks a few years ago. I tried actually recreating that memory in my living room. Kak... gag me with a spoon, the smoke is too strong, sickening and it coats everything in the room. Back in the '70s smoke was everywhere, cigarette smoke, cigar smoke, industrial smoke, trash & garbage smoke, vehicle fumes, we were use to inhaling smoke 24/7. Incense was a respite from the perpetual drudgery smoke. We were used to brown slimy sludge on all once-white surfaces. But now, after the nationwide "clean up the air" campaigns and the "cigarettes are really gross" campaign and being personally cigarette free for almost 20 years, my whites stay white and even the smell of incense makes it hard for me to breathe. Progress. Now if we could just get rid of the irresponsible gum chewing.
I feel like gum chewing has gone down in popularity over the years... so many fewer instances of stepping in a gooey sticky glob of it... now it's like vaping is the new gum... I'm kinda sick of seeing vape cartridges all over the place... it's actually worse than cigarette butts.
I keep finding vape carts in my lawn by the street and since nobody really walks down this street much I'm thinking the squirrels are vaping too now.
I tried, but there's no IGNORE-button
I'm trying hard to cut down on the puns, but no luck. Sh*t!
...we had one here on the Southeast side of Portland called The Thrid Eye, that was an urban icon for over three decades It closed down four years ago due to losses amounting to 600,000$ after cannbis was legalised and competition new cannabis shops increased.
@Miss Bad Wolfie... I have no idea right now how to answer person to person, as it's been maybe 10-15 years since I was active on(in?) these kind of forums. But: Me not finding the button, I guess, is because I'm just too buttoned up. And again: Exsqueeze my norwenglish.
...button, button, who's got the button?
...never, ever touch the...Red Button.
@Miss Bad Wolfie. So was I. Ti hi
Who rang that bell!
...I still love that film. The Art Deco style of the Emerald City was wonderful.
The death of the mom and pop headshop. Sadly mom and pop weren't corporate billionaires pumping rivers of hot green cash into... ah... never mind.
My "legalize it" friends used to envision a leafy future where the green stuff was no longer vorboten and everyone danced in the sun, but I was always the boring one who said it would eventually end in big pot and the little guys getting the shaft... it's not there yet, but technically it's barely begun and it clear it's heading in that direction... not the reason for the place pictured above going under, but eventually it will for others.
Tis the way of all things.
Or install it next to a light switch.
...the big cigarette companies have been ready for years.
Easy... Louisiana Omnipotent Kangaroo Institute... I'm surprised anyone still remembers them after that incident in 98'.
