Default Have I mentioned Cost Plus teas aren't all that good?

I got some self-branded "whole leaf" tea at cost-plus a
while back, and I don't recall whether I mentioned that
"whole leaf" doesn't mean "whole leaves" to them.

The broken leaves in CP's teas are a tad larger than the
broken pieces in Twinings' loose teas; but the tea itself
isn't nearly as good (comparing Darjeelings directly,
especially).

I mention it now (maybe again) because I'm about to throw
the rest of the bag away, and don't want to forget to warn
the world, first.
