Feel free to be loose with your definitions. “Not usually considered a drug” is fine to qualify as “non-drug”, for instance. I’m not really thinking so much of “foods”, though, but maybe “food ingredients” and substances found in food ingredients are fine, especially if they’re quasi-drug-like or if you’d get a lot of the same benefits/enjoyment from it consuming it straight rather than in food.

Also ITT, tell other users why their substances actually are drugs actually.

Mine:

  • Chamomile - good for my mood and gives me vivid dreams.
  • Capsaicin - I and Wilbur Scoville are well acquainted.
  • Cacao - I don’t really do cacao any more because I’ve quit caffeine, but I include it here because I still miss sucking on unsweetend baker’s chocolate daily.

    Something to keep in mind; virtually all commercial tea bags release insane amounts of microplastics in every cup (like millions). Recommended to cut open the bags and put the tea itself into a stainless steeping ball to avoid the plastics.

    The only commercial bags I know of that are actually made of wood based paper and are safe are Yogi tea bags.

      Bigelow teabags are also made from wood pulp and also dont use any adhesive (their pyrimid bags use a corn/sugarcane adhesive tho, but still no plastic)
