It was open stage night in rec.food.drink.tea, when Ripon stepped
up to the microphone and muttered:

In Bangladesh-we some tea lovers practice tea leaves reading. It
is still a very rare king of practice around here. What about
in US?

(From bangladesh)

It's uncommon but not unheard of in the U.S. It exists in
pagan/wiccan circles, and from the neighborhood psychic who also
reads palms (as in the hand, not the plants or handheld computers).

But most people (probably) still associate it with gypsies and
carnivals.

Then again, most people in the U.S. don't realize that Lipton
teabags are not the only way to prepare tea.
