After water, tea is the most widely-consumed beverage in the world.[2] It has a cooling, slightly bitter, astringent flavour which many enjoy.[3] The four types of tea most commonly found on the market are black tea, oolong tea, green tea and white tea,[4] all of which can be made from the same bushes, processed differently, and in the case of fine white tea grown differently. Pu-erh tea, a post-fermented tea, is also often classified as amongst the most popular types of tea.[5] Green Tea leaves in a Chinese The term "herbal tea" usually refers to an infusion or tisane of gaiwan. leaves, flowers, fruit, herbs or other plant material that contains no Camellia sinensis.[6] The term "red tea" either refers to an infusion made from the South African rooibos plant, also containing no Camellia sinensis, or, in Chinese, Korean, Japanese and other East Asian languages, refers to black tea.

  • By Matt Robinson Once Upon a Time, There Were Few Options for The
    INSIGHTS IN HOSPITAL IT Y™ By Matt Robinson Once upon a time, there were few options for the romantically-inclined to express their feelings. A few colors of flowers and cardboard hearts of various sizes (filled with items of varying quality) were often all that could be found. These days, however, the options are almost overwhelming! That is why we at Santé have organized them so that you can make the most effective choice for wooing and winning the person(s) of your choice. While wining and dining can be a great way to woo, especially as we are all locked in and locked down these days and many of our relationships (including potentially romantic ones) are limited to digital interfaces, it might be a good year to try something more low-key. One great option is the “Crazy for You” pizza and wings combo from Chocolate Pizza Company (www.ChocolatePizza.com). This sweet set combines a gourmet chocolate pizza that is made with homemade English toffee and topped it with red, pink, and white chocolate candies and sugar sprinkles with a 16 oz. red tin of their famed peanut butter wings, which drench rippled potato chips in peanut butter and either milk or dark chocolate. If you are looking to get out and about without leaving home, the Boston Public Library’s Norman B. Leventhal Map Center is offering an online tour of some of the spots that have made Massachusetts a candy capitol for generations (www.leventhalmap.org/articles/candy-tour/). From Paul Revere’s house to the famed wafer-colored silo on the New England Confectionary Company (NECCO) building to the toll house in Whitman, MA where the eponymous cookie was invented, the BPL takes visitors on a tasty tour through history that will take many back to their own childhoods and also inspire them to use Valentine’s Day as an excuse to revisit some old favorites.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Nebraska Anthropologist by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@University of Nebraska - Lincoln. Starbucks vs. Equal Exchange: Assessing the Human Costs of Economic Globalization Lindsey M. Smith This paper discusses the impact of economic globalization on human populations and their natural environment. Trends leading to globalization, such as multilateral and bilateral trade 8fT88ments which reduce trading barriers between countries, are discussed. According to the economic principle of comparative advantage, all countries which specialize in what they can produce most efficiently should benefit equally from fair trade. Developing countries must increasingly rely on cheap labor and low environmental standards to compete for foreign investment and capital in the global economy. Observers argue that the market is not free enough to conect the long-term damage associated with export policies like this. Poverty, misery and social stratification are increasing in many developing countries as a result. A case study of the coffee industry in Latin America provides evidence of the consequences of globalization policies on the most vulnerable populations.
