Sam's Club has a H-U-G-E box of Bigelow green tea for like $5-6.

I haven't had Bigelow green tea, but their Earl Grey tastes like ass.  Check out Celestial Seasonings, if you have the chance.  I rarely come across an Earl Grey that even comes close to Celestial Seasonings.

Celestial Seasonings also doesn't use that annoying paper tag and string ::)  I've tried some of their other teas and they DO make better teas in general, but I just can't pass up the savings...Lipton, oddly, makes a pretty decent green tea too, but again, the money...oh the stinkin' money!

PS: you might be interested in what my intake is.

Not really. You are from California, right, so you probably eat a lot of tofu and bean sprouts. We Texans eat steak! :)

You are a single man and from your pictures you appear to be in your twenties. That is quite different from my circumstances. You basically are free to pursue whatever diet and exercise regime you want, and from your posts I think you enjoy exercising. I am married with two teenagers and am over 40. We have to provide food that the children will actually eat, and there are a lot of demands on my time. If I do not make specific appointments with the trainer, I won't go to the gym. Exercise is not in my genes or in my list of things I enjoy doing.

If the man loves anything, it's a giant mass of teabags.

All of the theories and "programs" and everything behind fitness is cool, but really, it is very very very simple:

Eat clean and in moderation and get plenty of exercise.  It doesn't matter what food it is if it's real food in moderation.  It doesn't matter what the exercise is so long as you do it well and often.  That's it.  Eat clean, moderately, and go out and do stuff.

That's hilarious.  That's actually the only thing I hate about CS.  I make tea one cup at a time and I like the string.  I order teas directly from them by the case (six boxes), just so I can get the food service version which has the strings  :)

this is the Tea I drink, I was asking what type you drink because most of the brewed ones I tried taste pretty bad. I have tried the Earl Gray and did not like it.
