I’ve not been able to drink tea for months until I bought a new mug cos my other one is infused with coffee stains.

It was only £1.30 but I can finally drink tea!!! 😀

    No, but why can’t you drink tea out of a mug you’ve drank coffee out of?

      Oh I don’t clean it. Maybe once a month but if I want to get it spotless I need to soak it in bleach overnight. So it’s heavily crusted in coffee stains and dried coffee milk bits round the inside edge.

      Yeah I’m aware it’s gross but it’s not killed me. It had stopped me from drinking tea though until I got this mug which is only allowed tea in it.

        I had a colleague like this. He had a camping mug that he wouldn’t clean - literally had an eighth of an inch of stains on the inside of it. A stainless steel cup with what looked like a void inside.

        He loved it, too. So much so, that if you dared to clean it, the dude would go batshit crazy.

        Never quite understood it myself, but you do you!

          I don’t wash my coffee mug too often, but only out of laziness. But I drink it black, not washing out cream and sugar sounds really gross.
