The plant that kills? |
Thankfully, the Supreme Court just ruled in favor of a lawsuit against the commercial's airing, filed by the head of Coca Nasa, an indigenous company which produces tea, cookies, wine, soft drinks and even medicines out of coca leaves.
Good riddance to La Mata que Mata. In the future, let's hope that those anti-drug campaigns campaign against drugs, not plants.
And I won't have to twist around that radio dial so often.
Let's celebrate with a coca tea.
A coca leaf cookie package ridicules the ad, by celebrating 'The plant that kills...hunger, ignorance and misery.' |
