As far as "land of the free" goes, I'd rather have restrictions placed on me than possibly allow explosives or whatever to be disguised and brought onto a plane. I agree that some things are rather silly, but better safe than sorry. Just sayin'.
This would be the best way to go, if you have them in the original package already. Will you be bringing any sort of teaware along with you as well? This might fortify your claim that it is really tea, if of course there were by some chance a problem...
I agree with you on the restrictions put on us too. In the world we live in today, freedom comes with quotations around it and must be explained to you. I remember my grandfather saying just the other day "A lock is only for honest people these days" and think that is a pretty good description of what we've come to. Until people in general evolve out of malicious thoughts, thats pretty much how the rest of us have to live

Word on the street is, Chip and Ed were once apprehended running a shipment of high-grade Afghani Shincha through the Khyber Pass...
Somehow they wound up in some deranged old Turkish prison. Luckily enough, Mary pulled a few diplomatic strings, made some calls to her friends at the Consulate, and Fortune saw them back Stateside, safe and sound, snug as a bug in a rug...

Too bad the tea was all confiscated... ehh it was probably stale by the time they got out of jail anyway
