You can modify tobacco plants to produce a wide variety of pharmaceuticals. It’s a very versatile plant. Last I knew, the University of Kentucky had a large field of various strains of experimental tobacco plants on their research farm.
They better call them wacky tabacky
I’m still on the tomacco train
Now do a real life Tomacco!
I knew smoking’d pay off if I just kept at it! (kidding)

I wonder if you’d get the numbing effect of cocaine when smoking the leaves like tobacco
