    At my job there this almond flavored coffee pods that when brewed smelled overwhelmingly almond-y. My cousin works in metal reclamation an they work with a LOT of cyanide, I tell him if he ever wants the day off, I’ll get him a pod, all he needs to do is spill that coffee and they’d shut down the entire floor to double check things.

    (context if you’re lost is that cyanide smells a lot like almonds)

      Fun fact, wild almonds have lethal amounts of cyanide, it’s only through selective breeding that we can eat them

        Who the hell thought, “OK, so it killed Bill, but I think there’s something here. We just need to keep trying.”
