For kids.-- jutta, Aug 09 1999 For cats who've learned to turn on the kettle.-- laurenesorensen, Aug 10 1999 Fill them with catnip.-- jimfl, Jan 06 2000 In the UK, tetrahedral tea-bags are quite popular (Increased volume when compared with 'flat' tea-bags allows more tea-water diffusion) - and can be used to teach kids about basic Platonic solids-- hippo, Mar 02 2000 Platonic solids?..Are those solids that don"t have sex?-- dwp37, Jun 26 2000 I hate fish, and I hate tea. Not platonically.-- centauri, Jul 25 2000 I've seen reports on very sweet (bottled) tea for children as a health problem; it rots their teeth.
I don't know what I was thinking. Maybe it's just that *I*d like fish-shaped tea bags. (But I'd like pokemon-shaped ones, too. Pikachu Pekoe, Charmander Camomille, and Squirtle Earl Grey!)-- jutta, Jul 31 2000 Hmm.. Fish-tea puts me in mind of Japanese green tea, which often gets brewed with all sorts of additives, including, if I'm not mistaken, some sort of dried fish-flakes. I only remember hearing about this once, so I could be wrong.-- mcfrank, Aug 01 2000 Please don't read that: Used tampons would make a great "fish tea"-- jurgo, Sep 08 2000 Going one step further, I think every food product should be available in a variety of shapes. Surely we have the technology to grow bananas shaped like cats, and why can't Pizza Hut deliver my pie in the shape of a star?-- confusionary, Sep 08 2000 I'd be for it if I weren't against teabags.
They could be easily sewn out of muslin, and reusable, and you could probably do something witty with the gathering-string connected to a hook at the 'mouth'.-- hello_c, Sep 08 2000 Don't you think that'd be a bit disconcerting? ("Oh look--there's a fish floating around in my hot drink!")-- seizethefish, Dec 30 2000 Not a bad idea. Rather clever.-- Vance, Feb 05 2001 Do kids drink tea?-- simonj, Aug 05 2010 Some of the more old-fashioned ones do, [simonj].
People tell me rooibosch tastes of mackerel. Since i've never eaten mackerel, i can't comment.-- nineteenthly, Aug 05 2010 well I'd probably change the name but cute idea.-- dentworth, Aug 05 2010 // Do kids drink tea? //
If there's nothing else, and they're thirsty enough, eventually, yes.
You just need patience, and possibly earplugs.-- 8th of 7, Aug 05 2010 "Mommy, the fish is pooping in the water and making it all brown!"-- Cedar Park, Aug 05 2010 It definitely needs to come with a little fishing rod, hook and landing net for taking it out. +-- xenzag, Aug 06 2010 How do you avoid the temptation to see who bunned and who boned your ideas [jutta]?-- Voice, Aug 09 2010 random, halfbakery
