WOW…..but this is the same with anything……everything in moderation.

Who would have thought, good to know, but must have been an enormous amount of tea and maybe her system can’t digest tapioca well.

My daughter had young Chinese boy interested in her at one stage. He kept inviting her out for some bubble tea. She was never sure exactly what it was, so she never went

I have never tried bubble tea though I would like to. I have heard stories similar to this in China where they sometimes use rubber in the drinks to save money but I don’t think we have problems like that in Australia as our food safety regulations are more strict.

I’ve never heard of this before but scary

My 12 year old daughter was introduced to these by a team mate on a netball trip. We have recently had one to try again, while away as a family. Thankfully our younger son was not impressed and I found them sickly sweet, with the addition of the balls quite weird. This drink may be very limited for our daughter, I think.

Yes well that is interesting. Thank you for the information.

I’ve never tried it and I don’t think I will after reading this.

Wow! I have nver drunk this kind of tea and definitely won’t be. Imagine how much she must have had for this to occur.

Holy cow, that kid has seriously drunk a tonne of this stuff!!!

This is the first I’ve heard of bubble tea. Not sure I would ever try it now, crikey. I wonder if she just had to wait it out or if they gave her laxatives or something?

I haven’t heard of bubble tea before. Seems she drank an excessive amount

Oh gosh… this is why I have never tried bubble tea…. over a crazy phobia that this may happen ……
she obviously had wayyyyyyyyy more than one drink though

I’ve never heard of bubble tea but I’m sure one cup wouldn’t cause that much trouble

Of course, again, parents never saying no to there kids and getting what they want when they want it, this is the result

So, really it’s just a warning for people who drink insane amounts of bubble tea. I enjoy it in moderation, though I prefer it with fruit jelly to the tapioca balls.

Never heard of bubble tea, does not seem healthy though.

I have never had a bubble cup before. As a teacher, I know how many of these children can have!

I have never heard of this before now, but probably would never have tried it anyway as milky drinks are not my style – prefer tea, coffee or gold old plain water from the tap.

I’ve never drunk bubble tea and unlikely to now.
