Oh, leave the poor tea alone. ;-) The manufacturer simply hasn't figured out how to market the gay tea yet.

Oh, dear. So they're both in the closet.

We have "HOMO" milk in Canada. And fortified stuff that proudly declares, "TASTES LIKE HOMO!" I'll have to get a bag of it next time I have something to send over.

Or Clairol's "Mist Stick" and the liquor "Irish Mist," which didn't sell all that well in Germany. Seems that "mist" is Germany for "excrement."

Which is not to say that foreign companies don't make their own blunders, namewise. IKEA once tried to sell a workbench with the brand name of FARTFULL. Yeaaaah.

Some of my brother's high school buddies would buy that in a heartbeat. Even now, 30+ years later.
