The ancient Babylonians are believed to have used sesame seeds to promote youth and beauty. Most varieties are wild and native to sub-Saharan Africa. Due to its unique ability to grow in areas otherwise unsuitable for agriculture. Today the sesame plant is cultivated throughout the world.  Sesame seeds have since been naturalized in tropical areas worldwide and today is primarily grown in India. Sesame seeds are largely known for their extremely high oil content and in fact are the oldest oilseed crop known to man; believed to have been domesticated over 5000 years ago.
