nytimes.com — "At age 100 or so, the old bag is increasingly being filled with fine whole leaf tea, the kind connoisseurs brew in their teapots, and the bag itself has been redesigned in shapes that are not only elegant but constructed to allow those flavorful leaves to show what they?ve got."

This brings a whole new meaning to the term "tea bag." ZING!

For most people, tea makes them pee.Perhaps you should brew your tea, rather than eating just the leaves straight. That'll solve your tea-induced poop problem.

10 years. I think Lipton and PG Tips are owned by the same company, too. Pretty strange they've only thought to bring this to the states now

Yes, both PG Tips (Brooke Bond) and Lipton are owned by Unilever.

These bags do have a certain "cool factor" and could make loose teas very popular, which is great, as they're typically far superior than the dust and fannings found in store bought bags.However, this is an even better solution:<a class="user" href="http://digg.com/health/Tea_s_got_a_brand_new_bag_2">http://digg.com/health/Tea_s_got_a_brand_new_bag_2</a>These are loose leaf tea bags that can take any loose leaf tea, allowing you to brew 1-2 cups with ease. They are cheap, available at most online and B&M tea shops and they will handle your tea of choices, whereas the pyramid bags will stick you with their teas, which could be old and stale. Just because it's loose, doesn't mean it's good. Some good places to start in buying good loose leaf teas:<a class="user" href="http://www.uptontea.com/">http://www.uptontea.com/</a><a class="user" href="http://www.specialteas.com/">http://www.specialteas.com/</a><a class="user" href="http://www.adagio.com/">http://www.adagio.com/</a>

call me paranoid but would dipping nylon in boiled water cause that to leach whatever chemicals are in the nylon to leecch into the tea? yuk..

Actually...most of my friends that regularly drink organic tea prefer buying bulk tea from the local healthfood store and using reusable cloth bags.

it does seem somewhat retarded that this is an innovation - putting your wonderfully healthy loose-leaf tea in a non-biodegradable nylon bag. I mean, really, where is it going to go from there? landfill. and how long is it going to stay there? far longer than a paper teabag.
