Tbf, wouldn't coffee, tea, chocolate and sugar cane have been considered spices by then's definition?

Poppy seeds are definetely also a spice tho. And coca is an herb, which I guess can also be used as a spice... Use of coca by native populations seems to have been mostly medicinal... But then again, that's also how many spices were used until the 19th century.

Ironic because poppy seeds have very little flavor and coca literally numbs your tongue.
