special food items

Another question I came up with:

I cannot drink coffee because it bothers my stomach and digestion too much, but I still need my caffeine in the morning. I thus drink yerba mate tea every morning while everyone else is drinking their Starbucks. It is a South American tea that is the most caffeinated tea there is (comparable to coffee in regards to caffeine levels). I imagine that this yerba mate tea will not be available to me while traveling to Africa, so in order to keep myself awake and my tummy happy, I would like to bring a box of yerba mate tea with me. I'm sure we cannot bring certain food items into Africa with us, like fruits and what not. I am wondering if I will run into any problems with bringing tea, and if so if there's a way I can request that Tauck provide some yerba mate for me??
