[QUOTE=Chryseus;42165621]If it's not boiling it's no good for tea.[/QUOTE] Brewing temp and drinking temp are two extremely different numbers you don't drink it around boiling that's god damn retarded
[QUOTE=catbarf;42164648]That's still 192 degrees Fahrenheit, only 20 short of boiling. They really shouldn't be selling food products that pose a risk to the consumer, especially when all they have to do is cool it down a bit to make it safe. Thirty seconds in a freezer would be more than enough and wouldn't unduly inconvenience customers.[/QUOTE] A fast food place doesn't have the luxury to place hot drinks in the freezer for 30 seconds. When you get your coffee from Tim Hortons/McDonalds/Starbucks, it comes piping hot. This isn't a new thing, it has been this way forever. [QUOTE=catbarf;42164648]You can call it user error and say that the customer should be responsible for their own food and drink, but if you read the article the beverage in question was in a cupholder and was spilled during a collision. It sure says a lot when the damage caused by a drink spilling is far worse than the damage caused by an automotive accident, and there was nothing the driver could have done with the drink to prevent it from spilling. Driving with a cup of coffee shouldn't be a potentially life-threatening condition.[/QUOTE] If you like to drink hot drinks you should get a mug that prevents spillage. Decent spillfree mugs with screw-on caps can be had for $10-20.
i see a lot of people saying that 'true' tea is made in boiling water. i have an idea If you are really worried about of your tea is steeped 'true', don't buy tea from Tim Hortons. Make your hyper hot tea at home, or a fancy tea shop. I have tea all the time in just hot water, never boiled, and it tastes just fine.
