I have primarily been a purchaser of P & G tips over the past several years. Recently P & G changes the design of the tea bag and outer packaging. I suspect it was a cost savings move since the box is smaller and the tea bags are flat now and come in layers of two bags with perforations so we have to now separate the two in order to get one bag to make tea. The smaller box is nice for storage, however about every 20 or so bags one of the bags tears open when trying to separate the pairs at the perforation. So, in every box of 80 bags 4 are waisted. I’ve considered cutting the pairs with scissors as I transfer the bags from the box to my tea bag canister. Bottom line is that I now have to do this work to get my tea bags and it is not without waste.
