If you ask for "tea" at a restaurant, what happens and where do you live? (lemmy.world)

In the South East, they bring you sweetened (usually far too sweetened for my tastes) iced tea. This is amazingly universal.

I live in NC and have been probing the border for years.

For "nicer" restaurants, the universal sweet tea boundary seems to be precisely at the NC/VA border.

I read this comment and choked my nestea I'm drinking right now for breakfast. 29g of sugar... It just tastes so good, I'm addicted. Plz send help!

I had an iced cap from Timmies for the first time in 7 years and I don't recall it being so sweet. But you are right, everything is fully loaded with sugar nowadays

There was a time when my day started with a French vanilla and a glazed sour cream donut every day. I haven't really eaten much fast food in the last decade but I had that combo again on vacation this year and it was like chasing a bloc of sugar with pure syrup. How did I do it?
