How many cups of Sugar go into a perfect gallon of Sweet Tea?

I honestly don't see how/why people drink unsweet tea. It is nasty.

I'm from the north. 3 - 5 years ago hardly any restaurant around here had sweet tea. I'm just the opposite. Drink sweet tea up here or visiting my brother or sister in SC trying southern style sweet tea has the same effect. Feel like I just put nothing but sugar in my mouth. Way too sweet. So nasty.

I couldn't find pure Stevia last time I went to the grocery store so I'll have to widen my search a little more.

All the big name brands just fluff it with stuff like dextrose to make it even out in ratio to sugar because Stevia it sweeter in smaller amounts. That leads to the bitter after taste and higher price. What ratio do you use for stevia to a cup of sugar?

And yeah, I don't understand the unsweet tea drinking when it's the low grade tea bags. If you are using a premium loose leaf or bag, I'm in. Both my girlfreind and my ex ordered unsweet and then added sweet and low at the table...never understood that.

No, but I've been interviewing there so I'm hopeful something will happen. If I'm in the area I'll stop buy and look or try some more specialty places around here.

I doubt most of us would turn down kool aid, we just don't want to admit it.

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.

      Team is looking good for next season

      With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By frankw · Posted

      We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
