Black pepper
The Ancient Guild of Pepperers chose a camel as its symbol. Black pepper is one of the world's most popular spices and has been for centuries. Peppercorns have at times been considered portable wealth. Pepper originally came over land, and this is the reason for the choice of the camel as a symbol. The camel is incorporated into the coat of arms of the Worshipful Company of Grocers, which also includes two griffins holding a shield "(pictured)".
