: pdf document page 12.
: Very interessting for all of you (I Think)
: Ever heard of Bixa Orellana?? or Lipstick tree?

Bixa is aploppas (one of the funnier-sounding plant names), achiote, and annatto
(and all of its variant spellings a[r|n]n[a|o]tt[o|a]). Lipstick tree is the same thing.
It's a common food coloring additive. It's the only genus in Bixaceae, according to
Delta, but a couple of other families I've never heard of have been removed from
it.
