033 Stimulants - Wired for Discovery

from The History of American Food · host Margaret Hardin

Caffeine, Nicotine & Theobromine - along with the printing press and sugar all arrived in a big way in Europe in the 17th Century. They each affected the colonization of America - some immediately... and some waited. Do you think kids these days are bad? Well!
