Comment on Tea is basically just salad water.

Salad is called salad because it’s salted - it’s right there in the name. Salt is basically the only required ingredient, and it’s usually missing from tea. Furthermore, the stuff that is salted (and nowadays dressed) to become salad is usually fresh stuff, not dried and fermented.
The majority of tea (pu’erh my beloved excluded) is not fermented it is oxidized.
Fermented: silly lil guys do some magic to make flavour get funky. EX: pu’erh, wine, miso, bread Oxidized: Oxygen, destroyer of worlds, wrecks havoc on the chemical structure of hapless molecules. EX: Guac that has gone brown, green, oolong, and black tea, rust.
TIL, thanks.
Salt does get added to tea. It’s not common in British tea culture, but they appropriated tea from elsewhere in the first place.
I stand corrected.
