Dilmah, The Tea People, Shit Me!

I know in some respects I am shitting myself here, figuratively fortunately, not literally, but couldn’t Dilmah label their bloody boxes of tea a little more clearly so Istop picking up the boxes of bags without strings on them. It really shits me when I get home and find I’ve picked up the string-less cup or pot bags. Then it shits me every time I have to spoon out a string-less bag from the cup because it inevitably drops a drip or two on the bench or floor. It’s hard to squeeze everything out of them, you know, with a stringed bag you bang the bag side to side against the inside of the cup and it drains the bulk of the fluid out of it, avoiding drippage.

Dilmah String-less Bloody Tea Bags

Now, I know the box cover says Cup Or Pot Bags, but surely they could put a big indicator on there that says NO STRINGS ATTACHED.

Why would you even bother leaving the string off, isn’t it a marvelous invention? Did Dilmah think, this is a great idea, lets take a step backwards and remove the string? Even if you’re popping it into a pot it doesn’t matter if there’s a string. If you don’t want the string hanging out the side of the pot, then cut it off.

An Individual Stupid String-less Tea Bag

I guess I shouldn’t call the tea bag stupid, it’s not his fault, it’s stupid bloody Dilmah. Put the string back Dilmah!
