Did You Know? (Background)
Cumin has been used as a spice and medicinal herb since ancient times. The plant is native to Egypt
and is grown mostly in Egypt and Asia. Cumin is an herb that is mentioned in the Old and New
Testament of the Bible and was popular for use during that time period. In Egypt, it was used to treat
tooth decay and digestive problems. It was also used for respiratory illnesses and as a pain reliever.

Now, it isn't used as much medicinally. Instead it's a common herb sued in Indian, Middle Eastern,
and Chinese cooking. However, even in modern Egypt its medicinal purposes are well known and
commonly used.
