Having spent some time collecting a jar of seed from my opium poppies, can anyone reassure me that these are actually edible before I bake them in a cake?

It's okay. Just Googled it and I just have to be careful not to do any world class competitive sport in the next week or so. Apparently you test positive for opiates! :lol:

My mother had all my poppy seeds last year and baked them on her bread. She was fine... :D

Thanks Chantal. I'm putting 4oz in a poppy seed cake (when the butter softens), so it might actually make us feel pretty relaxed! :D
