It is widely believed that only tea "leftovers" are used in the production of tea bags.
In fact, this is a misconception.
There is no need to think that the bags do not contain tea, but “garbage”.
Yes, the fractions are quite small. But this does not indicate low quality of the product.
Therefore, there is no need to give up on bagged tea and consider it worse than loose leaf tea.
But then lovers of the drink may have a question: “Which tea bags are better to choose?”
Roskachestvo shared important and useful information.
Many tea bags are made from filter paper.
Another type of bag known as a “pyramid” is also popular.
The material of the tea bags may differ, but this does not affect the taste globally, Roskachestvo quotes expert Kirill Tatarintsev as saying.
However, a plastic bag could theoretically be dangerous: it could introduce microplastic particles into the drink.
However, if we are talking about high-quality material, then there will be no dangerous components in the liquid. The main thing is to make sure that the manufacturers are responsible and create a high-quality and safe product.
Some tea bags are held together with thread, others with a paper clip.
Which option is better? It doesn't matter!
The thing is that neither a paper clip nor a thread changes the taste of the drink.
Of course, you can buy tea bags in a box.
But it is better to take bags, each of which has individual packaging.
The fact is that tea with “double protection” is less vulnerable to moisture and excess odors.
In addition, individually packaged tea is more convenient to take to work and on trips.
