Sorry, mountain dew tastes better than tea?

What garbage store brand floor scrapings sorry ass tea have you tried.

zalgotext,

The meme is about 4¢ tea bags. That’s certainly not going to taste the best.

ericbomb,

Okay okay you caught me.

I don’t drink mountain dew, or black tea. I do drink some herbal tea though. Caffeine makes me sick overall.

I had this meme stuck in my head, then just brain stormed what title would get me the funniest comments.

So far saying mountain dew tastes better than tea has gotten some banger responses like this one, so all is going according to plan!

freebread,

Sometimes the best memes are made by those who are furthest away from the subject matter. I’m over here with the 9¢ green tea bags from Wegman’s though.

Caffeine pills exist

OceanSoap,

Uh. Yeah, but you have to drink like 12 cups of tea to get to one cup of similar caffeine in coffee.

So, it’s actually cheaper to make coffee at home.

ericbomb,

Okay that probably depends on brands and like what you add to coffee/tea. But the true enemy is energy drinks.

That’s not true. Depending on bean extraction and quantity, a standard “cup” of coffee will have 100-200mg of caffeine. Black tea bags have around 40-60. A good rule of thumb is about 4x. Getting shit tier coffee goes for about $8/lb and will make around 30 cups, so about 25c per cup. So compared to the meme, coffee is still more expensive per mg of caffeine.

Edit: on Amazon you can get 200mg tablets for about 8c each. So that would be your best bang for the buck. Semi related, an old coworker would dissolve a caffeine pill in hot water and call it “Mormon coffee”; he was a character.

@charles @OceanSoap, if you compare a first class coffee with shitty english teebags, maybe, A good Darjeeling FGOP is way more expensive than coffee per mg of caffeine.

Coffee wins every time, even if I have to pay $9+ for a goddamn bag 😭

ericbomb,

Embrace tradition, 100 tea bags for $4! Your ancestors fought for access to tea!

Bro, my ancestors dumped tea in protest 😅

ericbomb,

Because the tea was expensive! They fought for cheap tea!

Homemade espresso >>>

(Of course, if it’s financially viable for you. In any case, try not to become an addict.)

Just pee in your green tea and add a cup of sugar per cup of pee tea.

It will look like mountain dew and get you sweating like mountain dew and taste like SHIT!
