Newsflash: "KOREAN DISH MAY CURE BIRD FLU"!

"South Korea's spicy fermented cabbage dish, kimchi, could help to cure bird flu, according to researchers. Scientists at Seoul National University say they fed an extract of kimchi to 13 infected chickens - and a week later 11 of them had started recovering. The researchers said the results were far from scientifically proven and if kimchi did have the effects they observed, it was unclear why."


Granted, my experience with kimchi hasn't been exactly scientific, but if you've ever eaten it, you too probably have some vague inkling why... That'd be some strong medicine! :-)
