Conversation with mom

Mom: You should drop in a preserved sour plum the next time you have herbal tea.
Me: I'm lazy and I forget.
Mom: But you should! It will make the tea potent.

I pause for a while, actually considering suggesting if any scientific research has been done on this.

Me: I doubt the tea will provide any form of hay fever relief. Can we please talk about something else?

ps. This is the umpteenth time the topic of the magical properties of preserved sour plum was brought up. =.=
