I’m pretty sure mom fed me tea as a baby regularly … because I saw her do the same to my younger brothers. And I drank tea from as far back as I can remember. And we brewed it strong too! We had a metal camp style pot that held about 2 litres of liquid, mom would get water boiling and then throw in about 10 tea bags and let it boil for a minute until it literally looked like coffee. I drank that kind of tea for the first 20 years of my life. After that I drank less tea and more coffee.

As far as I can tell, I’m pretty normal … but then again … what the hell is normal? I might be totally nuts and not know it.

Also, for all I know, it might have cut my life short too and I’ll end up with a heart attack or stroke earlier in life than later.
