Let's just say Janeway's coffee was made with the same stuff they used to put in Coca-Cola.
how else was she supposed to stand dealing with everything in the Delta Quadrant?
Janeway: look at these weirdos with plants growing out of them, let's start a civil war between them all, just for fun.
the plants gave her ptsd about tuvix
Supposedly, they still do use some part of the plant, but extract the fun part. Makes you wonder if Coca-Cola has become its' own cartell. Outside of pushing regular sugar, that is.
They do still use coca leaf with the cocaine removed. Also fwiw in Cusco, hotels have bowls of coca leaves and you can grab and chew them. It helps with altitude sickness and gives you a little boost of energy. In its unrefined form coca leaf is more like coffee than cocaine.
I was visiting some friends in the UK, and they had a little plastic packet of coca leaves with a label that said WELCOME TO ECUADOR on it. They didn't even know what they were. I'm guessing it wasn't legal for them to bring them back. They're lucky they didn't get caught.
Make a tea with the leaves, much tastier than just chewing them.
I used to have a box of coca leaf tea imported from South America. It's like %0.01 the strength of cocaine (which I have never tried). If you can get past the taste, which is reminiscent of damp straw, it works better than coffee. Keeps you wide awake for a few hours with no jittery feeling.
Hey! She beat the Borg with that!
