== History ==
Americans have been preparing muffins since at least the 19th century, using a wide variety of products to add flavor to the basic batter of flour, sugar and butter (generally not prepared with eggs and by definition unleavened). Fruits and even some garden vegetables have served as flavorings. Poppy seeds were already popular in most parts of the world for their taste and texture—as well as the narcotic characteristics of the opium poppy plant they are harvested from.
In modern times, growing poppy seeds is a difficult business for American farmers, due to the risk of heroin production. Other countries have fewer difficulties with permitting the growth of poppies for the seeds alone, which have very low (but still present) levels of opium alkaloids, such as morphine. As other countries began imitating the American muffin, the occasional use of poppy seeds to flavor them spread as well.
