  • I wanted to look this up with my brand of tea, and they do line their cellulose bags with plastic.

    From https://tetley.ca/pages/faq

    100% of our portfolio is in paper tissue format. Currently the majority of our tea bags are made from natural plant fibres with a thin inner layer of a plastic material called PP which enables the bags to be heat sealed to keep the tea firmly in the bag (0.03 g per bag). Recently, we transitioned our Orange Pekoe range to plant-based tea bags which are made with PLA tissue. PLA is a bioplastic derived from plant sources. Using plant-based tea bags across all our products is an important part of our sustainability strategy and commitment to reduce the use of non-renewable plastics in our business.

    Ugh. I stayed far away from those David’s Tea completely plastic bags but was really hoping that cellulose bags would be fine. Turns our they just have to put plastic in everything. I don’t want plastic anywhere near hot water that I’m consuming.

    I actually don’t have experience with this, but I’ve heard that all you have to do is use WINE and use the installers as usual and things should work out.

    I’m considering doing the same actually so I’d be interested in hearing how this goes. I don’t dual boot, but use Linux on my work computer and have just been using WSL on my home computer. Would be nice to get rid of the “gaming mode” Windows for my ADHD as well.
