Acmella oleracea, commonly known as the electric daisy or toothache plant, is a tropical plant native to South America, notable both for its appearance and its unique sensory properties. It grows quickly and produces small, round yellow flowers with a reddish center, resembling little buttons.

What makes this plant unique is the effect it creates in the mouth when consuming its flowers or leaves: a tingling, fizzy, and slightly numbing sensation caused by an active compound called spilanthol. Traditionally, it has been used to naturally relieve toothaches and oral discomfort.

In addition to its medicinal uses, Acmella oleracea is highly valued in innovative cuisine, particularly in cocktails and creative dishes, where its electric sensation offers a surprising sensory experience. It is also cultivated as an ornamental plant for its hardiness and its ability to attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies.
