The kind of Ugandans who go to the stores and actually buy and use teabags would not have hands so filthy they could re-infect themselves with the horrible diseases all dirty African hands apparently have been proven to have. In any case, the teabag ends up in a hot, sterilising mug of hot water.
I hope that is a (very tasteless) joke.
Less is more, more is less - whatever. I don't think marketing has to make sense; it just has to sell product. Look at how England hypes their football teams - internationally that rarely translates into spectacular results.
I really hope that was supposed to be a tongue-in-cheek statement because if it wasn't and you actually meant it, it leads me to surmise that you'll never attempt a MENSA application in this lifetime.
Assuming you're the adult in that picture, Lord help the little ones if you have any sort of influence over them.
Ugandans need the tag and string because their hands are so dirty if they used them to fish out the tea bag they'd have even more diseases.
