"...And tea has more caffeine than coffee."
Can you back this up? Doesn't it depend on how you make your tea or coffee?
I assume you mean "Big K" brand (that is, your basic generic Black tea)...
Do you mean per ounce? That'll depend on how strong you make each and how
the stuff was prepared in the first place (percolated coffee vs. auto. drip
vs instant, loose vs. bag tea). Sorry, I just cannot accept a blanket
statement like that.  With manufactured products, it's different: you can
deal with grams of caffeine per ounce of Coke, because there is a formula
for making Coke, and it doesn't vary all that much. Coffee and tea vary
indefinitely.
