The other possibility is in the kitchen, as you suggest. But I seem to

Oh, dear! Poppy Seed Tea, or even Poppy Seed CHEWING, is to be avoided
at all costs.

See this very interesting website, particularly the letters page.

My poppy seeds are leaving the kitchen!

Oh, God, someone who probably believes the Daily Wail :-(

Did you see the quantity? 3.5 pounds - that's a HUGE amount, even
for a gallon of tea. Secondly, the opiates are as bitter as hell,
and there is no way that a person with normal taste will not
realise that they are taking a lot. Paracetamol and (worse) panadol
are actually FAR more dangerous.

Using the usual small quantities in cooking isn't a health issue
and never has been.
