As I mentioned in an earlier post, I've been drinking tea quite a bit lately. I've also been checking out various online sellers of fancy tea. Yesterday I followed an add link to some tea outfit in Taiwan and I began to look around. I know I'm not twelve years old, but the picture below amused me.
Ding Dong Fields. Yes. It's lucky the people who work there speak Chinese or they would be giggling and snickering like schoolgirls all day.

You should buy some tea from an Asian food store. If its a good one, there will be an entire aisle of things such as chysanthemum tea and grass jelly tea. Don't try the grass jelly tea unless you need to vomit.
Sadly, there's no Asian food stores around these parts, so I would have to order it through the mail.
Vomit, you say?
Oh yes. It tastes...really really bad. I can't even describe it. My best friend is Chinese and her mom used to give us grass jelly tea, it is supposed to be "cleansing". It tasted god awful.
Too bad you don't have an Asian food store. You would LOVE the snacks they have.
I found some pictures of grass jelly on some website and now I want some. It can't taste any worse than it looks.
Nothing wrong with thinking like a catholic school girl...AS am I? Not really but it sounds good right?
It looks like tar. The taste is worse than I imagine tar would taste.
Tar or no tar, I still have to try it.
And, Amie, I'm not Catholic, so I'm not qualified to answer that.
Would you like a care package? I would be interested to read the post that confirms the awfulness of said tea.
I'm intrigued.
You can email me. It's on my blog info.
