These herbs are used in cooking? Why should they be banned?

I seem to remember oregano, catnip and even inner banana peel scrapings being used in the 60s for smoking.

None of those were banned.

Thank goodness this is America, with a Constitution, and not some  country somewhere in the Middle East or Far East. Come to think of it, things aren't so good in those European countries that were once part of the USSR.
