    For centuries, saffron has been a prized dye

    Bizarre that such a costly substance would be used as a dye for clothing. Why pay what’s likely the equivalent of HP ink when you can just get a box of Rit yellow dye at the supermarket?

    Surely the price will drop when someone figures out that drones can fly around and harvest the saffron.
