In the 1700s, tea was compressed into planks; a plank this size could last a person roughly a year. They would be bought in sections, and small slivers would be shaved off into the kettle every time somebody wanted to make a cup of tea. (Source) what the **** that’s so neat So what you’re telling me is that they were Frisbeeing tea off the ships. And THAT’S why it was such a big deal; they literally destroyed a couple decades worth of tea with each crate they tossed. They dumped forty-six tons of the stuff into Boston Harbor; that’s worth $1.7 million USD adjusted for inflation. People don’t protest like they used to smdh #this tea this is also fucking neat but someone censored my fucking swearing so i have to fucking put it back in this thread like who the fuck does that kind of shit and can i throw their fucking tea in the ocean for it Can we still buy compressed tea? So what your saying is if I want good tea just go to Boston harbour and boil the water? -- source link
