My English Breakfast tea states it contains 2g of protein. - eviltoast

How/Why? Is that an oblique nod to insect protein, how does tea contain protein? 🤢 + 3 CALORIES?!

Edit: there’s no milk or anything milk-related

    Though rare, some herbal teas might have tiny amounts of protein left from the plant they are made from. Some other things they added in to the tea, like for flavor, might also contain protein.
