Facts:
I bought a bottle of Nantucket Nectars Diet Iced Tea, which includes real pieces of lemon pulp.
After arriving at work, I noticed that it had already been opened.
Checking carefully, I discovered a small dent in the lid, on the edge, meaning it had bumped something and unsealed, as opposed to being opened and closed by a grazer or creep.
The tea tastes a little funny, but that happens every ten bottles or so. "Because all natural ingredients are used, taste, colour, and body may vary" and all that. Not bad-funny. Just different, and in a way it's been different before.
I found the tiniest possible scrap of green on the inside of the lid. There is no sign of other mold (if that is indeed mold and not just fuzz or something).
I already drank 1/3 of the bottle before I realised it was fucked up.
SO....
Should I continue to drink the tea, or should I go thirsty and caffeine-less all day and return it/throw it away?
Solve the mystery! You have the clues.
