I absolutely love iced tea, but I prefer it unsweetened and no lemon. You're right though, people in these parts love them some sweet tea. I ordered an unsweet tea from McDonald's once and they gave me sweet tea. I took a big swig and thought I was going to go into convulsions. I could not believe how sweet it was. Tasted like tea syrup... yuck! Goes to show, people are nuts, heh.
