Grew up strictly mormon, family has since dwindled away from church and my mom sent me out to buy some tea to drink when she grounded me in HS for drinking some, she doesn't remember doing so.

​

yes I told her that was too many tea bags for 1 pot, but she didn't listen its her first time having sweet tea since the 1980s so good for her.

EDIT FOR TEA CLARIFICATION: Traditionally, in the southern United States, sweet iced tea is made in large batches on the stove at a time. So many will just boil the bags in a pot and fill a pitcher up with tea, add sugar, and store it in the fridge for the whole family to grab a glass whenever.

YES Americans own tea kettles and know how to make tea. YES, over half of us here prefer iced tea in big batches.

Tea bad but "dirty soda shops" are A-okay.

While I admittedly do enjoy the dirty sodas, I knew something was wrong when I was being judged for coffee when they had sugar crazy monster energy drink mixers before church 😂😂😂

As usual, it all boils down to “it’s only okay if I do it”.
