    Its cornflowers, and it means i can’t drink it.

    Something about the flavour ruins tea for me, can tell immediately when its being used as a filler.

      I feel like i was reading that cornflower by weight is like way more expensive than actual black tea. In that light, its kind of amusing that the more expensive thing is used as filler

        Cornflower by volume takes up a lot more space though, so visually/per teabag the weight looks much higher. That, and it “naturally” sweetens the tea, helping improve the flavour with the cheaper, lower quality, tea leaves.
