The Wonders of Wedding Tea

This past March, researchers Dr. Monica Myklebust and Jenna Wunde from the University of Michigan have taken it upon themselves to design a “Healing Foods” pyramid so complicated it outriddles the Sphynx. Two years in the making, the brightly colored, 10 layered triangle is based on the idea of healthy, mindful eating. These years of research have yielded a cornucopia of consumable goods designed to ward off autoimmune conditions, chronic pain, cancer and heart disease. Unlike the strictly food pyramids of the past, this affirmitive action pyramid has expanded to include beverages too. Namely, tea. Yes, it seems that in the two women’s quest for the ultimate healing remedy they have rather anticlimactically come to the conclusion that the British have known for years: for health and sympathy, tea works best. In celebration of this mind-boggling breakthrough in health research, why not offer personalized tea bags as the wedding favor in your upcoming nuptials? These trendy little packages come with cute descriptions, will apparently increase the health of your guests, and will give these two women some badly needed PR for their blundersome, cumbersome “discovery.”
