I keep seeing references to bancha tea, which is a type of green tea (who knew?). Except that I keep seeing it as Bantha tea, which is totally not the same thing at all.
This is bancha tea.

(I did not realize that I was such a geek that I would even know what a Bantha was. Actually I didn't, I thought it was this, the Rancor, which is even funnier. Still, somehow I knew there was this thing, called a Bantha, in the Star Wars universe. Geek alert!)
This is the Rancor (from Return of the Jedi)

As far as I know, macrobiotics does not involve intergalactic creatures of any sort, so that's a mark in its favor already!

both of those would probably keep me away from the macrobiotic diet.
Now that I know what a bantha is, it makes me think of yak butter tea, which, if it were macrobiotic, would DEFINITELY be a deal-breaker.
Oh you've got me giggling!Bantha tea seems like it might end up being a little, um, fuzzy and have a tast like the smell of wet dog.
LOL! You are so funny. The real question is, what would the tea be made out of if it *was* Bantha tea? The hair? Horn shavings? Bantha poop? Ewwwwwwwwwww! ;)
Ok, I totally knew what a bantha was :)
lol :D
