I dont think a culture that uses tea bags should be snooty about tea. They love tea, but its not inherently English just because they drink the third most per capita. He poopoos the idea of a grain of salt while loving the low quality tea acknowledge bags in this article. Ignoring research and conclusions because it conflicts with your beliefs is pointless traditionalism/tribalism for no gain. Even if they started using salt that wouldnt ruin the social fabric of Britain like they seem to be making it out as. Just like coffee, there are many ways to brew a cuppa, assuming yours is the peak is just nonsense.
