Bubble Tea

Bubble Tea was suddenly in German everyone's mouth in 2012 - but the fashion drink disappeared just as quickly back from the market, as it had come. The cold tea with added sugar, other flavors and globules of cornflour in different flavors originates from Taiwan and was particularly popular with children and adolescents. However, warnings about the health risks of the drink came in Germany shortly after the market launch, which initially related mainly to the high sugar content and other ingredients such as artificial flavors or dyes. Also warned of swallowing by the beads was warned. Significantly responsible for the decline of the Bubble Tea era, however, are made press articles, which related to investigations of RTWH Aachen and reported on toxic ingredients in the beads. The statements of the articles were corrected in large parts later by the scientists, but the downfall of the bubble tea was unstoppable. Since 2013, this has largely disappeared from the market in Germany again. (Fp)
