Author Topic: EU bans peppermint sales  (Read 4376 times)

In its ongoing efforts to make absolutely certain that every aspect of every person's life is controlled in the minutest detail, the European Union is examining every herb to determine whether there's even the slightest hint of a chance it might be either harmful or useful. To this end, peppermint has been classified as a controllable medicinal herb.

Once existing stocks have been sold after next April Fool's Day, the EU may not allow its sale as a beneficial herb. At a minimum, EU citizens will not be able to purchase it in a form intended for medicinal use for any serious condition or for any minor condition unless each manufacturer goes through a prohibitively expensive and draconian procedure to prove that their particular version is both safe and efficacious.


I hate EU officially now. >:c Soon you will only be able to get peppermint with a prescription.
I will miss peppermint tea. :(

Some news site had it written on here. What would be proper English words for it to google it? :o

Well it's true.

More people die of cirrhosis and alchohol related diseases then of people using marijuana.

Because alcohol is cheaper and more readily available.

Also why is the EU banning this? Peppermint isn't deadly....

I prefer spearmint gum though :D


What? Why?

No, I'm not reading it. Just tell us why. OP could use more info anyways.
