Question: are u supposed to eat the bubbles in bubble tea?
Answer: Boba is made from tapioca. Due to the tapioca ingredient, it means the "pearls" or "bubbles" don't dissolve quickly when expanded to their fullest. Hence, if you eat them without chewing, it can be hazardous. ... "I always told anyone trying bubble tea for the first time; you have to chew the bubbles," said Mary.
