Tampon Tea

After a long night at work I came home – hardly awake – to fix myself a snack and I kept seeing this peripherally, asking myself quietly, ”Why is Vin keeping a box of tampons on the kitchen counter?” This happened four times in ten minutes. Because I clearly have a short-term memory. At some point I realized it was tea and not tampons. The bottom of the box says Packed in India. What do tampon boxes look like in India? Tea? Do Americans in India accidentally buy tea when they shop for tampons? Jane (sitting on Indian toilet): "Aww, shit, shark week (reaches for tampons). WTF TEA?"
