LOL.
I doubt if holly is on the WTO’s list of things needing fair trade certification.

On the other hand, I don’t consider vomiting, extreme sweating and diarrhea to be a very “fair trade” just for a caffeine buzz.

The vomiting has nothing to do with the tea. That comes from the emitics taken in the ceremony ~ including, no doubt, peyote freshly imported to Cahokia from West Texas ~ the very center of that cactus is currently occupied by the FLDS.

The tea is simply a tea, and the plant was misnamed due to a misunderstanding of the botonists.

I guess you didn't read the article. It wasn't for a caffeine buzz, it was a bodily purification ceremony. They knew exactly what they were doing.

Actually I have read that the bark of the chokeberry bush was used by native americans to treat diarrhea.
