Does tea go bad?

My brother would re-use his a couple times... I don't drink that much tea,
so it's usually a few days between uses. But with this cold snap, had a
couple the last couple days... Green Tea, caffeine free... my mom would
always say about food: if in doubt, throw it out.

Tea bagging means something *entirely* different in the USA.

Probably. However, this idiot didn't.

OMG! Apparently you don't know what that term means!

And yes, tea does go bad. I am not sure how long it will keep for.
Probably a year or two after it is picked.

As for reusing the bags, this was a common practice during the depression.
But each cup will be weaker and weaker.

It means a dumbass who has bought into the whole Ayn Rand/trickle down/
the ultra rich are demi-gods who *create* jobs nonsense.

I don't think that it goes bad. The flavor just deteriorates
somewhat, especially if it isn't tightly sealed. It certainly isn't
going to become unhealthful.

Not just weaker, but inferior in flavor. I guess teabags are fine for
those who make one cup of hot tea at a time, but for larger
quantities, loose tea is far more economical. Last time I looked, a
KILOGRAM of green gunpowder tea was about $10 at an Asian grocery. A
kilo makes 200 or more gallons of iced tea, so 5 cents a gallon.

I don't mind it being weak... I like it for the warmth. Sometimes, I just
hold the cup to warm my hands.

How did this get cross-posted-- and why? Where is the Moderator?

I just wanted to know how long it was okay to re-use a tea bag.

Not too many people know that the term "teabagging"--that is, pressing
the scrotal sack against the forehead of of the "teabagee" became
popular after it was mentioned in the movie "Pecker" by John Waters.

Are you one of those "trolls" or whatever they are? Tea bagging is
when a man puts his nut inside woman's vagina.

No. It's when Dutch lowers his nutsack into Goo's waiting, gaping,
toothless piehole.

Not the way cheese or meat goes bad, no.

If you're in doubt, throw it out.

I use loose green tea, steep for a minute or 3 (two types of tea).
Sometimes I get a second cup out of either. But only over about two
days. I think it would likely be okay for as long as a week or so. But
since it is drying in the air, the flavor seems to go "pale" even
quicker. And as it has already been used once it is at least a little
"pale" already.

Nevertheless, if you're in doubt, about anything at all, throw it out.
It's just a pinch of tea leaves.
