Is tea made by stepping on the feet?

The traditional process of stepping on tea leaves by tea growers, but I can list some points about this traditional process:

1. Acceptable: Tea grower's feet and palms can provide a good kneading effect, which allows the tea leaves to release the flavor better as well as preventing the occurrence of lumps of tea.

2. Unacceptable: Stomping on tea leaves may bring some hygiene problems, as human microorganisms can be easily transmitted to the tea leaves, which is a hygiene hazard.

3. If the feet are not clean, they may be contaminated and can cause health problems.

4. There are also many modern machines that can replace human labor to complete the traditional process, which not only saves more labor costs, but also relatively more hygienic and efficient.

5. Some traditional crafts are part of our cultural heritage and deserve to be respected and preserved.

6. At least from the point of view of the process, the traditional stamping of tea leaves has an obvious impact on the taste of the tea, but for some modern teas, the required taste has been different from the original tea, so it is more effective to choose the right process according to the needs.

7. With the development of society, there are more modern and hygienic methods to replace the traditional process.

8. For some special teas, such as some that require the metabolism of foot wound juice to ferment on the leaves, traditional stepping has been one of the irreplaceable processes.

9. In the choice of modern and traditional processes, it is about trade-offs and the need to be more attuned to the actual situation, as well as personal hygiene and health and safety issues.

10. For the traditional craft, it is necessary to inherit and expand, combined with modern technology and demands, to develop a more appropriate tea production process program, so that the traditional and modern better together.
