The FBI searched her home and in the kitchen found a wicker basket that had pill bottles with various writings on the labels. A bottle labeled “ricin” was half full with a yellowish white powder, which tests later confirmed was ricin, the complaint says.


She was getting gift baskets ready for the holiday. A little cheddar wheel. Some nice salami. Nuts. Ricin. All the holiday favorites.

“Cooking with Betty”

Glad my mom followed Betty Crocker recipes rather than with Betty Croaker

Sounds like it should be one of the cards we used to collect as kids.

Wacky Packs if think I remember correctly.

Every time I see the name castor I think of the time the doctor told my Ol Man to go home and take two teaspoons full of castor oil. Pap was plugged up.. Anyway, he read the instructions as two Tablespoons and took it.

He had the S#$ts all night. Was not plugged up any longer I tell you that.

maybe she just gave them less than lethal amount.

You need to eat a lot of ricin for it to kill you. The lethal oral dose about 1 mg per kg of body weight. Inhaling it or being injected is another matter altogether.

Vermont based, all natural organic ricin.

Label it “small batch” or “artisanal”. People love that.
