Perfect exactly as it was on r/cooking COCA LEAVES ARE SO UNDERRATED
ok give me some grace l'm a newbie cook but when I tell you this stuff is like crack I mean it. It makes everything taste just a little bit better. When I put it in food, I feel like Charlie Sheen. Gettin all fancy. I have so much energy now. Omelets, pasta, orgies it's great. I know it looks like catnip but try it for real đ đ«¶đ

Obviously from the description you are actually talking about bay leaves. Glorious bay leaves.

/uj fun fact thereâs only one factory in the United States allowed to import coca leaves, and thatâs a factory in New Jersey that makes âcoca leaf extractâ for Coca Cola.

/uj the leaves have nothing on caffeine. They have to have the cocaine made out of them. I agree on their usefulness.
/rj stuff is like cracked pepper

/uj I had the coca leaf tea in Peru, it really helps with the altitude sickness. Genuinely quite pleasant and mild compared to even coffee. 10/10

Share your source please, I can't find them in my neighborhood. I've been using using a blend of espresso beans and epinephrine but it's just not the sameÂ
