poppy seeds
Tiny bun toppers
Poppy seeds are the tiny, kidney-shaped seeds of the opium poppy, used in baking and cooking.
They have a mild, nutty flavor and appear on bagels, in muffins, and in Eastern European pastries.
Despite coming from the opium poppy, culinary seeds contain negligible amounts of opiates—though enough to occasionally trigger false positives on drug tests.
