Presumably the digging of graves in Flanders Fields did the same.<\/p>\n<p>\u27a2 The poppy seeds in your bagel are mostly cultivated from the opium poppy: \u00a0That\u2019s why poppy seeds are banned in several countries, including China \u2014 the worry is that they\u2019ll be used to grow drugs.<\/p>\n<p>\u27a2 The 25-cent coin with the red poppy released by the Royal Canadian Mint in 2004 was the first circulated coin in the world to have color.<\/p>\n<p>\u27a2 About half of all legally grown poppies (for medicine) are grown in Tasmania.<\/p>\n<p>\u27a2 Poppies have been used by humans for thousands of years as traditional medicine. The remains of Neolithic humans in the Alps have been found with a pouch containing wheat, barley, and poppy. All poppies produce compounds that can have medicinal effects. The Flanders poppy makes a compound called rhoeadine that has effects on people, but it\u2019s very mild compared to opium.<\/p>\n<p><strong>____________________________________________________________________________<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Waze Brings Back Cookie Monster to Give You Driving Directions<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If the scraggly voice of\u00a0<em>Sesame Street&#8217;<\/em>s Cookie Monster is what brings you joy, you&#8217;re in luck.
