I agree. Green Tea tastes great. I prefer Oolong over Green, though.
I prefer green tea over...pretty much everything. I just really like the taste, it's very light.
Plus I think green tea ice cream is about the best thing ever made.

mmmmm me too! I believe my glossy coat is down to gallons of salty bear goodness!
I effing love the public perception of science.
One study comes out and its all over the media and everyone thinks one study shows something conclusive and they go change their lifestyle for 6 months until the next one comes out.
Fortunately this one wasn't that case as it was a comprehensive study of studies, though one that I have serious questions about.
Yet, though we got past hysteria, we didn't get past stupidity. Idiots who read this can't even properly address the scientific fact contained within the article.
The pop reproduction of this article says CLEARLY that this evaluated antioxidant SUPPLEMENTS, not antioxidants in food. In fact, even the effing media can grasp the concept of this article, clearly quoted at the end: "Rely on food to get your nutrients."
This is not surprising, anyone without a medical condition who takes a supplement to give them 3000% of their daily __(nutrient here)__ needs to review the fact that they often just piss the rest out and may be causing undue stress on their body.
No wonder the public is so ignorant when it comes to science. People can't even properly interpret a popular summary of a study, let alone the actual study itself.
Its ENTIRELY aggravating. Especially as a scientist.
