So I was all just sittin' there, chillin' like I usually do and I thinks to myself "yo dawg, time to get off that soda wagon and opt for a healthy alternative and shit. Wisdom."


And that gets me to thinking "Tea. WHAT IS IT?"

I've never liked tea. Fuckin' dirty leaf water? no thanks comrade. I'll dress up like a native american and throw that shit in the river thankyouverymuch

But maybe it's an acquired taste? It took me a while to like beer so maybe I can do the same thing with tea.

So I'm going to take a step back and open it up to the audience and let's just see what kind of tea you sophisticated cats drink. If you were to recommend a tea to someone who does not typically like tea what would you recommend?

Well isn't beer just water added to some kind of plant matter that is left to basically rot?

Perhaps?

maybe you're just drinking the wrong kind of tea, that is, tea prepared improperly. There are other methods.

and for phil because i want you to be my special friend

I'm not too fussy on my tea, I'll drink Liption, or anything (normally Lipton, it's easy). just brew it and put in some sugar and toss it in the fridge for a nice sweet iced tea (the only type of tea is Iced, all that other crap is no good)

See, I thought about just going for sweet tea, but I'm trying to get a few sugars out of my diet.

But now that Muppets are involved I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.

Black tea.

I mean this without any kind of irony, earl grey and hot. I love that stuff. I go through so much of it. I also like iced tea but that last batch i made was watery and i cant bring myself to dump it. that means my tea jug is full of tea that i will never drink.

I like chai tea mostly. It really, really depends on the brand.

Seconding earl grey.

What about green tea?

Anyone drink green tea?

I've heard good things about green tea.

Earl Grey.

I hate green tea. In all forms.
At least the ones Ive had and I have been coerced into trying and retrying it on many an occasion. blech.

Earl Grey with a bit of milk, I should add.

Seriously. If you don't like Earl Grey with milk (hot OR cold), you better just go back to soda and chubbyness.

I heard you never go back though.... interesting.

Earl Grey is essentially black tea with bergamot.

No no NO! Do not taint the tea with milk. That is bad bad.

Psshh, that's not what THE INVENTORS OF THE EARL GREY TEA think.

Green tea can be good as well. You have to be careful not to brew it too long or it can taste very woody.

Tea taint. Not good.

Ugh, I don't understand how people can drink Earl Grey. This is not an attack on your tastes makare, there's just something about the aroma that gets to me; makes me feel like I'm drinking perfume.

Personally, I enjoy the Twinings brand, specifically their Prince of Wales, which is a blend of various black teas. Has a pretty nice, mild flavor. I've heard a lot of good things about Teavana, which B.T. linked to, but those are not bagged teas and you would need to invest in an infuser and pot. I've also heard good things about Adagio teas, which like Teavana, are loose teas. Whatever you do, I'd suggest you first just buy a sampler pack of various teas and see what you like.

-edit-

Also, regarding green tea, I've heard it has some mild benefits regarding metabolism, but I don't know how much of that is marketing bs. At any rate, I enjoy green tea, but if you don't dig the taste, you might try white tea, which is basically a milder tasting green tea.

That's funny because I dont drink Twinings because I think it is too strong. I guess that is why he felt he needed to add milk.

My sisters perfume does actually smell like earl grey though lol.

Teavana is decent. Republic of Tea makes a good Chai.

Twinings Earl Grey with a dash of milk is NIRVANA... both Iced and hot.

NIRVANA I tell you... and not the Cobain kind.

Phil don't listen to anyone but me. You are my special friend I would not steer you wrong.

SHE WANTS YOU TO BE A CASTRATED BULL!!

I'M SO CONFUSED.

Black is grey and grey is milk and I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO EARL IS!

I'm a tea fiend. If I'm not drinking water, it's usually tea. I like it in most forms, and it's very rare that I find a tea I don't like. Like Lipton's bottled white tea. Blegh!

For myself, no. I can get just as much Republic Tea as Teavana and it costs a little less. It really, REALLY, depends on taste.

Your best option is to get a small sampling and try it out. If you're ever at a store, they have teas you can test out and see if you think it's worth it. Like anything food wise, it's all about personal taste.

Danke

I occasionally drink green tea. It's okay. I like the variety that has mint leaves in it as well.

I like herbal tea.

Jesus Christ bacon tea? I don't know whether to jump for joy or burn out my taste buds.

Wouldn't that just taste like watery bacon? Or bacon in water?


ew

probably

I've been trying to get a taste for green tea, with a tablespoon of honey it's not bad. Though keep in mind, if you really want to switch from soda for health reasons, most bottled or sweet flavored teas are pretty much just as bad for you. Fresh-brewed green or black tea are the only ones with any kind of health benefits demonstrated.

Earl Grey is definitely an acquired taste. It takes a little time to get used to the bergamot flavoring. Worth it, though, in my opinion. I drink green tea when coffee gets to be too much for my system

Most black teas made hot make me nauseated for some reason. Earl Grey, though, hits the spot especially with a little milk. I do enjoy a good hot or iced chai, too.

Republic of Tea is very good. I really like their honeysuckle white tea and Earl Greyer black tea. Harney & Sons makes a tea called Yellow and Blue that is nice. It's chamomile and lavender. Their Winter White Earl Grey was interesting, too.

Hibiscus tea is delicious when made right, too.

I really enjoy wheat tea, but in my experience I've found that most people find the taste off-putting.

I have never liked tea, until college. I went to school with some people from Paraguay and they drink Yerba Maté.

The way you think of green tea is how I think of Earl Grey. When I've had enough coffee (as if that ever happens) then I'll drink Earl Grey.

I usually drink water but sometimes I want tea.

My wife and I love tea. We got like at LEAST 10 different type.

Teavana is good for one thing: to have tea properly prepared to show the North Americans why "dust in a bag" is the worst tea ever by taste comparision. One you are converted, there are many better places to buy tea leaves

I picked up a Green tea with citrus and a lemon herbal. I'll give one of them a try later tonight and see how that goes. Unfortunately I wasn't prepared for the event that the nearby grocery store I go to just didn't carry most of what was suggested.

Any black tea
with milk
and honey

if you're switching to tea for health reasons, watch your sugar intake via additives.

Oh Tea... I LOOOVE it.

Red Tea is one of my favorites, I drink it with lots of ice, very very cold, no sugar or honey or anything. Earl grey is the only tea I sometimes corrupt with a bit of milk but that's it, I like my teas flavorful, sugar just ruins it for me, AND the Red berries infusion with a hint of coconut milk is a freakin orgasm in your mouth.
Chai I really don't like, it tastes like perfume. hwell:
Black tea, green tea, herbal tea, mint tea, Long island iced tea sneaky ...I love them all.

You tea slut!

Chai tastes like perfume? I believe it does to you, I just have trouble seeing it myself.

First of all Phil, watch this: http://www.hulu.com/watch/93994/modern-marvels-tea

Then, if you want hot tea, I would suggest getting a nice black tea. Twinnings Darjeeling Tea is quite nice. Get something that comes in tea bags though, unless you already have a tea strainer. Don't go buy a bunch of tea gear, yet. Yes, there are tons of tea pots, filters, strainers, thermometers, etc. Follow the instructions on the packet. Add sugar to taste. Add some 1/2 and 1/2, and a dash or cardamon for chai.

For sweet tea, get Lipton/Luisanne quart-size bags. Boil some water with sugar (or sugar substitute). Turn off the heat. Add the bags. Let it sit for ~ 5 min. Pour over ice and add cold water to the correct volume.

Madam, fermentation is not 'rotting.' It is an anaerobic metabolic pathway that turns sugar into deliciousness.

I have never been much a of a tea drinker but I have been thinking about giving tea another try since it has been quite awhile. Strangely enough I am not a soda fan either I used to be but I realized I don't really like how sweet they are but I drank them cause I loved the carbonation. But I have since moved onto club soda and sparkling waters since I can get the carbonation I like without all the sugar.

When berries or juice "go bad" on accident it is rotting. If it is on purpose, it is fermentation. It's a very fine line of subjectivity.
My point was mostly to point out the silliness of not drinking leaves seeped in water but willing to drink barley or grapes that have been seeped in water and allowed to basically "go bad".

I mean remember that sauerkraut is definitely rotten cabbage. But people still eat it.

However I do have negative feelings towards it's production. My great aunt and uncle used to make it in this huge stone barrel.. IN THE HOUSE. You have never smelled such a stench.. rotten cabbage blech. It was godawful! It haunts my mind and my nasal passages. It was delicious when it was done though. I also liked the wine they made.... in that same barrel. Lol.

Not rotted but "fermented", kimchi is fermented too.

You know what I just realized, ever year of my life my Uncle would make wine of some type. But I never ever saw him drink any of it after the first tasting. Then he would give it away. I know they didn't drink much but that is an odd hobby to have if you aren't going to drink it. Lol.

Oh sweet fermented memories of my childhood.

It is kind of odd when people do that. The fella's dad plants tons of basil and tomatoes every summer, and he doesn't really like either of those things that much. More delicious salads for me, though. All I ever need to buy is the mozzarella.

Mmm man that sounds good... hehe.

I would always taste the wine too. I never liked it but I don't like wine anyway. Everyone else said it was wonderful and off it would go to other people. Except the year it molded. Ew.

Coffee is king. That does not need to be stated.

I love coffee. I especially love the kona variety. Now I want some coffee. Damn it.

I am the only one in my family who does not drink coffee. The rest of my family have to have at least a cup a day and several of them like to have 6 shot americanos.

My sister has started "drinking" coffee because her new girlfriend drinks coffee. Unfortunately, my sister doesnt really like coffee so she makes it and then just leaves it. It starting to piss me off because I bought that coffee and it is going to waste.

The one thing I'm gonna miss about this city is the coffee shop by school. They have a wide variety of coffees, and it always tastes really fresh.

Jasmine tea is good too, I forgot about that, I'll drink that warm, but besides that, sweet iced tea all the way

The heat has to go somewhere. Drink enough hot liquid, fast enough, and it'll raise your temperature. A cup of tea probably won't be enough to force your body to overheat*, but it might be enough to help warm you up if you've been out in the cold.

You... do react to spice that way. Cause you're human. If you're not flustered by eating a raw habanero (DISCLAIMER: THIS IS AN EXTREME EXAMPLE USED FOR WORST-CASE-SCENARIO ILLUSTRATIVE PURPOSES AND IN NO WAY MEANS ALL SPICE CAUSES THAT SAME REACTION.) then you really should look into checking your immune system out.

I specifically said cayenne and ginger. Im sure I would react that way to those peppers but that has nothing to do with morphine's examples. I don't freak out when I eat cayenne I just have that slight warming sensation. That was my entire point.

Yes, and if lava is forced down your gullet until if fills you up you'll probably burn too... to drink enough tea to have an actual effect on your body temperature you'd have to take a damn nearl lethal dose... cause, yes, the heat has to go somewhere but your digestive, circulatory and immune systems, at least, are designed to dissipate any type of heat OR cold your body takes.

Well, one thing is actually BEING warmer and another one FEELING warmer.
Cayenne, ginger, cinammon, peppers, anise... all increase blood flow to the surface and makes you FEEL warmer but at the same time makes you lose your heat faster so yes, technically these foods do have "an actual effect on your body temperature" but not in degrees, just in how that temperature is distributed and stored.

If you drink hot liquid you will not increase your body temperature. That's called having a fucking fever. You will feel warmer and the heat will disperse itself around the surrounding tissues and eventually dissipate throughout your body, but that's all. Now if you were a lizard...

Ok now for something more important... is the spanish in my signature grammatically correct?

It is, and it's funny.

excellent.

I'd actually remove the "las", though... unless you're referring to a specific set of ostriches?

Calleja said:

Yes, and if lava is forced down your gullet until if fills you up you'll probably burn too... to drink enough tea to have an actual effect on your body temperature you'd have to take a damn nearl lethal dose... cause, yes, the heat has to go somewhere but your digestive, circulatory and immune systems, at least, are designed to dissipate any type of heat OR cold your body takes.

Because, y'know, maintaining your core body temperature is KEY TO YOUR SURVIVAL.

Click to expand...

Wait, how much of a change are we talking about? Yes, core body temperature is key to survival, but it fluctuates by a degree or two depending on activity level, how recent you've eaten, if you're awake or sleeping, etc. It would be hard to overheat your body by drinking hot liquid (without burning yourself doing it) but a tenth of a degree or so is more than plausible, during the time it takes for your body to react and cool back down.

hmm we'll say im specific. the las adds to it i think.

Why not a millionth of a degree? No, no, let's talk about the effect on the ATOMS OF YOUR STOMACH LINING!!!

Well, that would be silly. However a degree or less would be enough to feel warmer, and actually be warmer for a while.

No. Ingesting something will not have an effect of a whole degree in your core temperature for more than a few seconds. No "while".

Drinking warm or cold stuff to feel idem is mostly a psychological effect. Yes, an ice cold beer feels wonderful during a hot day... but it won't cool you off more than a few cells for a few seconds. Unless, like I said, you're dying. Or have cold-blood.

It'd take longer than a few seconds to cool off the amount of heat contained in a couple cups of tea.

And what if your body doesn't want to get rid of the extra heat? What if you've come in from the cold and decide to warm up with a mug of hot chocolate? Are you telling me that drinking that won't help you warm up faster?

Wrong. Try it.

Calleja said:

Can't, sorry. I do have health issues that cause me temperature regulation problems. Any experiements performed on myself would be invalid for the general public.

I am saying that, because no matter how cold it is outside your core body temperature stays the same.... unless of course you start to actually freeze to death. But by that point your limbs will have all the circulation cut off because of blood vessel constricting to save heat for your core, so you won't be able to drink tea.

But, again, if you start using extremes... yes, if you're frozen solid having someone pour warm tea over your dead body will help defrost it.

I responded to the first part, the second one wasn't up yet when I hit submit. Look up for that one.

If im hot and miserable then I drink cold tea I feel more comfortable. Why is that?

I said why up there a few posts ago. It's psychological. You could also drink steaming hot coffee while it's 100 degrees out and the end result would be pretty much the same.

Not so, I have coffee in the heat and I get hot and my head hurts.

Oh. Let me tell every single medical professional they're wrong cause you get a head ache, then.

Click to expand...

My understanding is that core body temperature does start to slowly go down, even as the extremities cool off faster. However, I don't think we should only consider the core body temperature in this consideration. Are our limbs not part of us? If our legs get warmer or colder from drinking, then why not consider that an effect on our temperature? Even if our core has changed less?

And you've created a strawman with your dead body argument.

Calleja said:

Explain it then. I do not get the same result with coffee in the heat as you said I should. Why?

makare1 said:

Click to expand...

Because your gullet and your throat cool down and make you feel more comfortable. Your body also gets water from the tea and thus has some extra to produce sweat, which acts to cool you down. Your core body temperature stays 98.6 degrees.

Limbs are the first to get their circulation cut off when you're exposed to extreme cold precisely because that's where you lose the most body heat from.

And I was taking your extreme examples to their logical counters. Yes, if you're freezing to death having something warm is a good idea, but it'd be wiser to have it ON you instead of IN you.... warm the blood directly, don't wait for your stomach to dissipate it first.

I don't think it really warms you up, but it isn't just psychological. I think it also has to do with physiology. You feel cooler when you drink iced tea on a warm day (or warm when you drink something hot on a cold day) because the liquid does cool off your stomach, a major organ with lots of blood vessels. Your actual core temperature doesn't change. You just feel like it.
It's sort of the same principal when you put a cool cloth on the back of someone's neck or on their pulse points (wrists, armpits, groin) for heat exposure. You're using the blood vessels to make them feel cooler.

Your core body temperature is ALWAYS 98.6 degrees unless there's something wrong. That's my point, people who are not Chaz. Yes, if you stop working within healthy boundaries this will fluctuate.... but if you're freezing to death it'd be better to have the hot tea poured OVER you than drinking it. Same with overheating to death and cold stuff.

makare1 said:

Click to expand...

Because the temperature differential between a pint of water at 0 degrees Celsius and your entire body at 37 degrees would be enough to cool an average adult female by 0.2 degrees. (Unless my math is wrong. A pint of water weighs about a pound. An average adult female is about 162 pounds. 37 degrees for one pound averages out to 0.2 degrees for 162 pounds) That's a fair amount of cooling going on that then doesn't have to be done by evaporation of sweat.

This. That's what I think happens. I FEEL cooler when I drink ice tea in the eat and i nearly die when I drink coffee in the heat. If I used a thermometer then would it be a different temp other than my usual 97.8, probably not. But I do feel different both inside and to the touch.

I mean yeah, your core body temperature isn't going to be a perfect 98.6, it's going to go up and down like 0.2 degrees here and there, but it stays constant. It's pretty much the definition of being an endothermic animal such as a mammal or bird.

No because it isn't only in your mind or psychosomatic. Your temperature does not fluctuate, but you do feel cooler. Like when you hold ice in your mouth. Your mouth does get cold. So will your stomach if you drink something cold and the cooler blood does circulate through your body. It's not enough to make a major effect on your core temperature, but it does help you feel cooler. If I drink hot coffee on a cold day and put my hand over my stomach, it feels warmer than, say, my legs. Drinking something hot may not save me from hypothermia, but it does take the chill off in a normal situation.

Yes, that's my exact point! It dissapates to the rest of the body (or rather, absorbs heat from the rest of the body). Two guys overheat working in the sun. Their core temperature has risen above normal because they couldn't sweat enough to cool off both the heat of the day and the heat of exertion. To cool off one drinks ice water from a thermos, the other drinks from a water bottle that's been sitting out uninsulated. You're telling me that both will cool off at the same rate, despite the extra heat energy absorbed by the ice cold water?

Click to expand...

It'll warm it up to body temperature actually. And even though water has a really high heat capacity, the amount of water in a glass compared to the amount of heat your body gives off is negligible. When something is cold it's endothermic, that is it's drawing heat away from the environment into itself. Due to the laws of thermodynamics, it does this until equilibrium is reached. So no, a glass of cold water won't cool you down faster than tepid water. The whole reason you get thirsty when your hot to begin with is due to water loss while your body tries to cool itself down, not because it wants ice cold water to literally cool it off.

It'll warm it up to body temperature by dissipating it through the blood vessels in your stomach, is what I meant. Again, semantics, but it's not like your stomach warms up extra when you take something extra cold to warm it up, y'know?

The extra heat energy absorbed by the ice cold water is negligible to the amount of cooling both glasses of water do when that water is used in sweat. The dramatic temperature difference, however, causes the ice water to feel more 'refreshing' and makes you feel cooler as the ice water absorbs the heat in your stomach. If you said one jumps into a vat of ice water and the other into a room temp bath, I'd agree that the ice water bath cools the guy down faster. But in terms of a glass or two of water, I'd say nah.

Jeez guys, sorry I brought it up.

It's like how cool or room temperatue water will defrost (not cook, just thaw) meat better than hot water will. With cool water, if I recall correctly, the frozen meat attains the temperature of the water from core to surface; with hot water, the surface gets heated but the core remains frozen.

Yes, making mayo with different oils can result in very different results. Soybean is different than canola. Then you get into homemade vs store bought. Flavored mayos that are made partly with oils like seasame, walnut or bacon grease.... and I'm sure it gets more complicated from there.

No, but there is a definite love it or hate it reaction to mayo.[/QUOTE]

Mayo? ...Meh.[/QUOTE]
You, sir, are an anomaly. Relish it.[/QUOTE]

Mayo? No thanks. I'd rather not dollop my sandwich full of something that looks like and has similar consistency to cum.

Fuck you bitches AHAHHAHAHAHHAHA:

Whoa.. you need to drink more water if your cum is coming out like mayo, dude

Or stop leaving his mayo out in the sun for a few days.

Ah, secret sauce, Null?

Or find out who's putting jizz in his mayo jar when he's not at home.

Spicy brown mustard > Mayonnaise, forever and ever Amen.

I live in a great nation that allows us to have both. God Bless 'Merica!

Delicious, delicious madness.

THIS IS HELLMANS!

In all honesty, to me it sounds like a Gungan porn site.

Fine kill me dreams.

I think Vince, the ShamWow guy, could sell Jizz in a Jar.

Jizz in a Jar would be better as directions given in a sperm bank.

No thanks, I already got pudding.

Is your sandwich lacking pizazz? You need JIZZ IN A JAR!

It also serves as a great skin care product. *product not actually beneficial to skin that is just a dirty dirty lie*

Sounds like an Andy Samberg song.

God bless America, indeed, Mak the knife.

Hey, if we can have baconnaise, why not? As Stewart said "It's like my tongue just took a shit"

I haven't watched Jon Stewart in a few weeks.

Why, why am I doing that to myself?! WHY!?

I think not having Conan around gives me less incentive to check out the OTHER late night shows I like.
