A survey by UK supermarket Asda has found that tea crazy Brits insist on packing their teabags before jetting off on a foreign holiday.
The results of the survey, released this week, show how almost half of all British holidaymakers cannot cope without their cuppa abroad.
East Anglia were revealed to be the biggest tea-aholics, with 60% packing teabags for overseas breaks and 43% taking biscuits as well!
The survey of 1,500 people also highlighted other popular items taken abroad by Brits including Marmite, tomato ketchup, pickle, coffee and mustard.
One peckish holidaymaker even admitted to cramming pork pies into his luggage!
Asda spokesman James Maxton said: “Although the days of British holidaymakers wearing socks with sandals and kiss-me-quick hats are long gone, our obsession with getting a decent cup of tea on foreign shores remains. Expensive coffee shops across the globe may be trying to breed a nation of coffee lovers, but we still see soaring tea sales in the summer.”
