I tend to go with unsweetened tea. Why? Diabetic. Also, many restaurants here in Atlanta make it far sweeter than I would want anyway.

In reference to the OP, there is in fact nothing more important for the General Assembly to concern itself with during the few months that it’s actually in session. (Except for the state budget crisis, the various developing environmental disasters, the abysmal state of indigent defense, and a few other items.)

And we might be having a referendum on whether to change the stupid fucking state flag again. Yippy!

In GA they are wrangling over the controversial “saturation point provision.” Traditionally in GA that is the level at which sugar is served in tea.

GA has dealt with the thorny dildo issue. On to tea. Yes, I said “thorny dildo.”

Coming from South Dakota, where we NEVER saw tea already sweetened served in ANY restaurant, it was disconcerting (to say the least) to be in Goldsboro NC and get served tea that was so sweetened as to be almost slushy with all the sugar in it.  
:bleaaah:  
And I LOVE unsweetened tea in the summer.

What’s worse? That they introduced the bill, or that we’re talking about it?

That they introduced it. At least we’re only wasting _our own_ time and money.

Of course, one could argue that anything they did would be a waste of the taxpayers time and money, in which case my argument falls apart fast.

I never realized how fucking picky people were about iced tea.

I suppose the next law will be that popcorn _must_ be buttered.
