Scrabulary Word of the Day - 9-30 "TEABLESPOON"

TEABLESPOON = TEASPOON + TABLESPOON

I was helping a customer choose a water-soluble fiber product.  I was showing her how many tablespoons were in a dose.  I was thinking tablespoons but somehow teaspoons got in there and I said:

"It shows you here how many teablespoons you need per day."

I am sure I thoroughly confused her,
