My wife is very fastidious about her cup of tea and likes to take a handful of Tetley tea bags on holidays. She thinks that the tea one gets in the US is cr**. Not being a tea drinker, I cannot comment. But the Americans have strict rules about not allowing 'foodstuffs' and I wondered if it would be a problem if we took a SEALED packet of Tetley tea bags with us for our forthcoming 3-week visit?

Normally, teabags are OK but if you read this thread http://www.orlando-guide.info/forums...?TOPIC_ID=6257 and are going via Philadelphia, be prepared for them to 'disappear'!

Nostromo,
My wife also loves her tea, and so a large bag of teabags is carried in our case, we have never had a problem, and the case has been searched by the Food & Agricultural officers on more than one occasion. You can also buy English Teabags at 'Publix' in the ethnic food section, but be warned they were expensive. I like you, do not drink tea, I'll settle for coffee, but the american stuff could be better!

Yeh well we have always brought tea but mine just disappeared in Philadephia last week....

We've brought tea bags to the US many times with no problems.
We're up to our eye balls in Bisto gravy.......I think my mother in law thinks I can cook......[msneek][msnoo]
