> I know you aren't SUPPOSED to squash the tea bag - but can anybody really taste the difference?????YES! It makes the tea bitter. And if you put milk and sugar in it I can tell if you put it in after you poured the tea too, and I don't like it so much.
Now, for a long time people told me that it was a petty affection of mine. HOWEVER. . ahem
I found out that the reason is, if you put the tea in first, the milk is scalded and it alters the flavour.
