Steve Jobs is now selling tea - CNET

There she was just moseying around and there was Jobs in his classic beard-stroking pose wanting her to buy some cherry-rum tea.

So, she posted a picture on Twitter. Because, well, that's what you do when you wonder what on earth is going on.

Swirepo hadn't seen this brand before.

It's called Tea Rebels.

Where might this company have got its inspiration? Polish tech blogger Mackozer wisely suggested to me that it might be from Apple's famous "Here's To The Crazy Ones" ad.

Richard Dreyfus' voice-over begins: "Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels." Aha.

You see, you'll never ever guess who's on the front of Tea Rebels' green tea. Why, John Lennon. He was also in that Apple ad.

And look at the black tea. Another star of the ad: Mahatma Gandhi.

I contacted Tea Rebels to wonder, among other things, whether the company had secured the rights to these images. I also contacted Apple to wonder whether it knew something of this. Neither immediately responded to a request for comment.
