Herb Feud Spiced Up By Death Threats
Author: Patricio G. Balona Source: News-Journal Online (FL)
Title: HERB FEUD SPICED UP BY DEATH THREATS
Some herbs have aromas that offer an olfactory tickle and flavors so potent or soothing some say they'll cure what ails you.
But there is nothing mellow about the relationship between two flea market vendors who peddle these cultivated delights. Their association is so wrought with bitterness that no concoction can sweeten the situation.
Angelo "Vinnie" Fasseas and Merlin Bolin make their livings, in part, from booths -- side by side -- that offer herbs for sale at the Daytona Flea and Farmer's Market on Tomoka Farms Road.
The selections are nearly identical, but their differences started a feud -- an herb war of sorts -- hotter and stronger than the powerful smells of spices racked on their shelves.
There's hate, rumor, accusations of theft, deceit and an order from a judge.

There's enough money in herbs that more unscrupulous people might kill over them. Herbs have all kinds of uses, you can even use them as fuel. For example, in Italy, Mussolini made the trains run on thyme.
