Another “gift” that keeps on giving from South America. The cursed continent. Angry arrogant ignorant illegals and their spawn, filth, diseases we long ago eradicated but are now back with a vengeance, drugs, cartels, pestilence, gangs, rapists, criminals, Aztecan tribes who cut living hearts out and decapitate men women and children to propitiate the gods of rain for their stupid corn crops. The only “civilized” product to make its way out of the rain forest was the singer Astrud Gilberto and Bossa Nova in the ‘60s. And only because the jazz saxophonist Stan Getz knocked her up first.
Eons ago it split off from and drifted away from Africa.
and coffee...
Sounds like you’ve described the Central American portion of the North American Continent not South America.
