TeaChat

I was reminded by another thread about a recent episode of Ruth Reichl's new show, Adventures with Ruth. In Laos, she drinks a tea brewed with silkworm droppings.

Look for the episode named The Tamarind School, Laos here, where you can view the episode:

I actually considered posting this under "Flavored Tea".

I am not clicking on that link. Ewww!

Anyone in for horse-apple tea? Sparrows love to pick in it so there must be something good there.

I know someone who used to drink cow-dropping tea.... No wait... That was just the mushrooms...

Did they make purple tea?
