    Scientifically it makes sense.

    But I’d rather take a walking holiday in Milton Keynes than do it.

    As an American (and filthy microwaver of tea, though I do have a kettle now) I just stopped scrolling in the hopes of witnessing some rage at the idea, but everyone’s being really reasonable. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

      Dude, I’ve been experimenting with different mixes of ginger and cinnamon. People obsess about water temperatures. Tea drinkers like nothing but ideas for more posh things to do to their drinks. “Pinch of salt” is just snobby enough that I can’t wait to try it and tell it to all my friends next time I’m complaining about a lackluster café order.

      The big issue I see, and it’s a PR thing, is it coming from the US. That alone may disqualify it. We’ll have to see.
