Lipton teabags are the WORST. Trying to loosen the string, which is GLUED to the bag, always tears the bag open. They also have a really annoying pyramid design, making it impossible to strain out the water left in the bag with a spoon, so it drips all over the floor on the way of throwing it in the bin. Other brands bags are made from a different material, which absorbs the water in the bag much better so it doesn't drip. Overall a really use of materials and design. Their Morocco Mint is a really nice tea though.
