    Taste is subjective. I hate the taste of tea AND coffee. I'll stick to water and diet soda.

    Blasphemer!

    Oh, I was shunned last week for hating on Nutella. I already know how horrible a person I am!

    I drink a LOT of water and I go through phases where I also drink a lot of different hot/cold tea. I never sweeten it and can't imagine doing so.

    I think nutella is disgusting.

    I like tea - cold or hot, but never sweet - and agree with the quoted post... begin the shunning!

    Oops - I hate peanut butter, too . . . . My mom loves to tell people about how I was such a weird child that I refused to eat it. That, and processed cheese slices/ kraft cheese. Even as a kid, I never ate those. I ate a lot of jelly sandwiches . . . and was overweight by the time I was 10.

    I enjoy drinking tea whether I'm trying to lose weight or not. Tea (real tea) is fairly acidic though and can cause stomach problems in some people, especially on an empty stomach.

    Hijack warning! My grandson enjoys drinking tea with me when he visits, and we make tea from teabags (because I'm not wasting expensive golden dragon tea on a 4 year old who puts ice cubes in his cup). Last Sunday he wanted to know what was in the teabags so we cut one open. Um, black powder. I ended up making some "real" tea in a glass cup so he could watch the leaves unfold. I'm pretty sure he's not going to be settling for the cheap stuff from now on :/ /end hijack. Carry on.

    When I said real tea I wasn't referring to good or expensive tea vs. crappy tea. I meant actual tea leaves vs. some type of herbal or other tea that doesn't contain any tea leaves.

    I was a coffee heavy-drinker 6-8 cups a day. I cut it in half by adopting green tea. It almost failed until I discovered Lipton Green Tea with either citrus or orange aroma.
