The lab found “thujone, ether, cyclohexane, camphor, and fenchone.” How much thujone? One part per million. A decade later, Breaux came up with similar numbers. Must be intense stuff to be dangerous at such low levels. Except that in the United States, absinthe is legal Cooking Assholehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13699558071051793769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21271644.post-68717210006887157392008-10-15T02:23:00.000-07:002008-10-15T02:23:00.000-07:00good post!!thanksgood post!!thanks<BR/><BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://fashiongirl.arviblog.com/article-255931.html" REL="nofollow"> </A><A HREF="http://sky986.kitaguni.tv/e693219.html" REL="nofollow"> </A><A HREF="http://ameblo.jp/lifeshy/theme-10007190649.html" REL="nofollow"> </A><A HREF="http://www.iblogyou.fr/sky986/32442-cant-get-along-is-it-in-love-how-to-want-.htm" REL="nofollow"> </A><A HREF="http://Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21271644.post-59121416011671369242008-07-21T18:07:00.000-07:002008-07-21T18:07:00.000-07:00Yeah, we bought some from the liquor store in Sell...Yeah, we bought some from the liquor store in Sellwood today.

Your science is a little outdated. The thujone theory has been debunked--turns out that it gets removed during infusion. They tested old bottles to confirm.

The "Trillium Absinthe" article seemed to leave out the important info on Absinthe.... Why it was so popular in the past!<BR/><BR/>First, let me say, I've had some Absinthe when in France about 20 years ago. It was kind of nasty and real bitter.
