Tea Bag Prac.... need help

Post by bigmack »

I've been asked for teabags to do the Tea bag prac.

You remove the staple , empty the bag , form it into a tube and light the top .It sits there for a while and slowly lifts off the bench .

Now last time I got tea bags but they had no staples and even though they carefully cut the top and bottom off , several teachers told be they were useless and most wouldn't lift and this year have demanded ones with staples again .

Sooo , not being a big Tea drinker , I have no idea which brands have staples .
Anybody know which brand of teabags still use a staple ??? [-o<

We use Tetley, Yorkshire (can buy in Woolies) and Lipton. All will work but the Tetley works the best.
We do this for Year 7 Taster Day - students get one of each to see which works the best.
