=[|How Many Animals Have Died for Your Tea?]=

__**Summary:**__ A report done by Untied Kingdom's PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) tea companies like Lipton and other brands have been testing their teas on animals in some gruesome ways. Rabbits were given high fat diets to harden arteries and were then given tea to see if it helped lower levels of cholesterol. Mice were purposely bred with inflammation problems in their bowels and piglets were infected with E. Coli.

__**Analysis:**__ This article is bias but raises good points to the fight against animal testing, what is the point of testing your tea on animals if its just so you can put the label "Health Benefits" On your tea box? This could be related back to the __**//Cognitivism//**__ Theory. This is the way people think and view about the world. Maybe the companies that were testing their tea's see that there is a larger market and profit for them to have if they can simply prove their teas help cure certain health factors in humans and to prove so they need to test on the animals.
