I’d like to think that as long as there are new people, LSD will never be “old news”? Certainly new people are born into a word that has been influenced by psychedelics, but for regularly functioning people, your day-to-days are still prett

> White rice and pearled barley have their hulls removed. I haven't read the article, but the title says "whole grains", which to my knowledge do not have the bran ("hull"?) removed. Maybe the corn hull is unique
