I went in 4 a temple recommend interview a couple of years ago. Long story short, apparently Pres. Nelson put the kibosh (looked it up and that's the correct spelling) on any tea. Ok. Now, I don't drink it anymore. However, this makes me laugh b/c the biggest caffeine addicts live in Utah drinking Mountain Dew, Coke, Dr. Pepper & so forth. Of course, the Word of Wisdom has nothing to do with caffeine. It's the issue with hot drinks. I get that. I also have acquaintances hospitalized b/c of their caffeine addiction. So, I think we should do away with all hot drinks. Hot water is a no-no too. Oops, we'll have to explain to our many Asian friends why they can't drink hot water now.
Just sayin'.
