· Green Tea Pumpkin Seeds, $5 for about 6.7 ounces, Ten Ren Tea. The flavor was balanced, but the hulls were thick and stale.

DON'T GO THERE

· Green Tea Candy, $1.50 for a 4.23-ounce package, Ten Ren Tea. Unless they were doubling as cough drops, we'd pass.

· Green Tea Chocolates, $6 for a 3.85-ounce package, Ten Ren Tea. The white chocolate base was waxy. Nobody reached for seconds.

· Ciao Bella ice cream, $3.99 per pint, Whole Foods Market. The addition of milk "curdles" the tea flavor.

· Rice Dream ice cream, $2.50 per pint, Whole Foods Market. Watery and dull.
