といい usage

"素っ気ねー。。。青汁のことといい、もしかしてこれが噂のいじめ"

I'm fairly certain that the rough meaning of the sentence is "She's really cold..."青汁のことといい" , is this maybe that rumored bullying/teasing?"

I asked a friend about this because I just couldn't find any thorough explanation about this. There is a といい~といい grammar point in the Dictionary of Advanced Grammar, but I'm not sure if this is same thing.
He said that the use of といい here is to kind of add or relate a thing to something else that happened before (like experience1 is similar to experience2) but it was really unclear to me.

The context here is - the girl didn't let the guy in the house and then gave him 青汁 instead of tea (to mess with him). Or maybe it relates to 素っ気ない (素っ気ない態度), no idea. It kind of fits, but I'm not really clear on the rules about it. Does anyone know where I could read about this grammar point or offer some clarification?

"How cold. I mean, serving Aojiro (to me)... maybe this was a sign of her infamous bullying."

In this case the といい relates to the aojiro. Aojiro is famous for being horrible-tasting. It isn't something one would ever serve to a guest. So in this context its pretty clear the server doesn't want the guest in the house.

Yes i interpreted the same as majestic even though this is a new grammar point to me, I just deduced that much, however why exactly was the といい used here? Can't it just be

青汁のこと....もしかしてこれが噂のいじめ

といい is from ～といい…といい structure, as killerinsidee-san wrote. 青汁のこと is an example why the speaker feels he/she might be bullied.

Thanks for the help everyone, it means a lot. :>

Edit: Is it common to use といい just 1 thing/event? Opposed to just in the multiple things/events structure (といい...といい...).
I guess I'm wondering about the same thing as letianchen.

Sorry for a stupid question. xD

Actually, 青汁のこと is not the only one reason he feels so. 素っ気ねー is also one of the examples. She is treating him cold, plus, she served aojiru to him (right?), thus, that sentence actually means 素っ気ない今の態度といい、青汁のことといい、もしかしてこれが噂のいじめ？

Ah, I see. That's making much more sense then just using it with 青汁. Thank you once again, it's extremely helpful.
