Tea Bowls

I heard a rumor recently about why people in the Far East sometimes prefer teacups without handles.

The justification went something like: "If the cup too hot to hold, then the liquid inside is too hot to drink". Pretty smart, huh?

I don't know if the rumor is true, but it has saved me from a burnt tongue on many, many occasions!
