Some tea bag brands are really proud that they've moved from petroleum based plastic on their bags to PLA.

What the fuck. It's still plastic, guys. There are a few brands that don't have any plastic. You have to look them up brand by brand though.

I'm not super paranoid about plastic, but I have been trying to avoid it a little more. And the biggest place to avoid it is soaking it in near boiling water that I'm about to drink.
