D.A. I know you. You don't even like corn! You must think everything has tobacco in it! Oh wait! You must think everything is from the nightshade family! (ok ok so that sounded weird. I'll go now)
I love my Welshman.

Ewww datura...I was wondering if that was a nightshade too. I now a few people who once ate some datura and all 3 were hallucinating like hell and completely out of their minds They thought it would be fun I guess...eating toxic plants fun? Uhhh okayeeee.... Some reason datura is known as a hallucinagen (and I mean actual bonafide hallucinating not anything pychedelic) and alot of people try it. Back in colonial days some settlers ate it not knowing and were reported to have "gone mad" and indeed they did...very toxic nasty plant.
We're all mad here!
