Talk:Use of saffron

Saffron cures the plague?
The line "Medicinally, saffron was used in ancient times to cure a wide range of ailments, including stomach upsets, bubonic plague, and smallpox" implied to me that saffron acutally cured the plague, while I am fairly certain that it did not... would the phrasing "saffron was used in ancient times as a percieved cure for a wide range of aliments" or something similar work better? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.104.60.225 (talk • contribs) 10:24, 27 October 2006‎

Merge saffron trade back into trade and use of saffron?
The saffron trade article was supposedly split out back in 2015, but nothing was removed from trade and use of saffron, and saffron trade remains quite short. Should it be merged back into this article? —  AjaxSmack 23:14, 8 December 2019 (UTC)
 * It might be simpler to delete the trade section from Trade and use of saffron, and to do a technical move to Saffron (use) (or similar). Klbrain (talk) 10:59, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
