A riddle was posted on Reddit—Dad Jokes on September 18, 2018:
Q: What do camels eat to help them fall asleep?
A: Camel meals.
Wikipedia: Chamomile
Chamomile (American English) or camomile (British English; see spelling differences) (/ˈkæməˌmaɪl, -ˌmiːl/ KAM-ə-myl or KAM-ə-meel) is the common name for several daisy-like plants of the family Asteraceae. Two of the species are commonly used to make herb infusions thought to have medicinal uses, although there is no high-quality evidence they are effective.

This camel meal tea is really good—not at all gamey like I expected.
