Dude, for real, go research it yourself, if those guys even did tell you that it was probably just to make you want to stay away from them and the drugs contained within.. What they grow in afganistan is the papaver somnifurum, the opium poppy, seeds from those poppies are sold and distributed all across the world, you've probably eaten them yourself if you ever had any pastries or bread with tiny round seeds all over them. the seeds will not harm you, i repeat, the seeds will not harm you.
there is no need to back away from the seeds. the seeds are your friend.
