While the hack got plenty of love online, not everyone is on board with tea bags. A few users pointed out that they can release microplastics into your drink. One person commented, "Been doing this for years," while another chimed in with, "Nice hack, sir." Some took a more critical approach: "Not environmentally friendly, secondly, not good for health," said one. Another user warned, "Avoid tea bags altogether, bro.
