okay, i pretty much love the tea itself & the packaging is good, but here is what i want to know...WHY is it that sooo many of the bags leak or tear or have holes in them?? i'm not 100% sure which it is, as i don't SEE any holes or tears or leaks in the bags when i put them in the cup. while i'm steeping it, i am VERY careful, because i'm sick & tired of drinking mouthfuls of HERBS instead of tea. so, they are leaking or hole-y or tearing at some point in the cup? i'm guessing there are bigger holes than i'm seeing or they're getting minor tears once in the cup AND/OR they are made poorly & leak out somehow. though i have examined them usually after i use them & remove them from the cup after i've had the tea. i only ever use 1 bag per cup too. so they aren't "overused", though many people do do that, i have in the past.
so Yogi company can u PLEASE do some better quality control w/your tea bags. this is NOT cheap tea, no tea is cheap anymore. nothing is cheap anymore. greedflation abounds everywhere, especially in stores, supermarkets, food items. everyone jumped on the greed wagon, it's ridiculous & insane, as well as wrong. greed, greed, greed!! it's an ugly trait, especially in companies that are supposed to be all about pleasing the customers. you all gonna please us by bending us over? bankrupting us? making us all struggle to make ends meet? i saw ONE box of this tea, here on walmart being sold for $90!!! NINETY DOLLARS for ONE BOX OF TEA!!!? can u imagine! i saw aa similar price like that on here as well for 1 roll of paper towels, 1 roll. was $40 or something equally insane. i think they were both 3rd party sellers, NOT walmart themselves, but walmart has been on the bandwagon for SURE! doubling, tripling, quadrupling (& more) prices overnight, no joke. okay, i'll get off my soapbox for now. :)
ps. the tea costs MORE $$ on here, the tea's official website/maker than anyplace else i've seen it! there goes what i was just speaking of again. imagine that. haha ;)
