    I live in the US and I strongly object to microwaving water. But I am also /really/ into tea so I avoid tea bags as much as possible.

    Part of the cultural difference is that US is largely 110 and the UK is 220. It’s faster and easier to use an electric kettle. In the US, the microwave heats up the water “faster” vs the stove or an electric kettle
