When I was working from home I drank 6 pints of tea a day (had a pint mug)
Now I've been made to work back in my office it's down to just 6 regular cups but I now have it black as I can't be bothered to walk to the co-op to get milk.
I'm xzanfr and I'm a tea-o-holic.
Where I come from, adding milk to tea is similar blasphemy to pineapple on pizza.
Black tea is wrong and you should be ashamed of yourself.
Both are delicious, you're missing out.
Just embrace the revolution and call it an Hawaiian tea
The co-op is miles away. I'd rather have black tea than walk there or drink manky work milk.
Of course I tried them, how could I have an opinion otherwise?Both are delicious, you're missing out.

My conclusion was:
Ahh, you're from Pretentia then?
More like the Antipretentia.
When I try to recall the perception from my early years, acts like using pineapple for pizza or mixing tea with milk were seen as forced, pretentious, attention-seeking.
It was years ago though... I don't care now.
It must be curiosity though, for folk who is used to drinking "white" tea.
We've had so many arguments about tea in this thread, it is brilliant!

Milk in tea has been the way a lot in the former British Empire have ALWAYS drunk tea - and ham and pineapple pizzas are available from Aldi for like 2 quid. If that's pretentious then half of my council estate growing up were too

Family were miners and dockers so used their fancy, thin walled set of tea cups for visitors that would crack if the hot tea was poured in first.
Modern pint mugs of tea are very forgiving so can go straight from teapot to vessel. I use a tea pot with integral strainer at home for loose tea, but work is a mashed teabag that I fish out and save for a second go a bit later.

Yeah, my mam would always get out the "fine china" for visitors while most of the time we drunk it from coffee mugs stolen from the local Starbucks lol xD
