While poppy seeds do not contain opium, authorities fear they could be contaminated with opiates, a class of drugs that can relieve pain and cause drowsiness.

This whole thing is clearly ridiculous, but that's a hilariously dismissive way to describe opiates.

This is HILARIOUS because my girlfriend LOVES this seasoning and was just visiting from Korea and was searching online to see if she was allowed to bring it back 😂😂😂. People on the Korean forums were saying stuff like "omg americans are so addicted to drugs they even put them on their foods" and we were dying 😂

Ignorant and idiotic. Like banning hemp rope for its relationship to cannabis.
