Burn Remedy
CAN'T HURT. MIGHT HELP.
I am SO impressed by this...looks awesome!!!
My experience with burns is this:
Once I was cooking some corn and stuck my fork in the boiling
water to see if the corn was ready. I missed and my hand went
into the boiling water....
A friend of mine, who was a Vietnam vet, came into the house, just
as I was screaming, and asked me if I had some plain old flour...I
pulled out a bag and he stuck my hand in it. He said to keep my hand
in the flour for 10 mins. which I did. He said that in Vietnam, this
guy was on fire and in their panic, they threw a bag of flour all over
him to put the fire out...well, it not only put the flour out, but he never
even had a blister!!!!
SOOOO, long story short, I put my hand in the bag of flour for 10 mins,
pulled it out and had not even a red mark or a blister and absolutely
NO PAIN. Now, I keep a bag of flour in the fridge and every time I burn
myself.
I use the flour and never ONCE have I ever had a red spot, a burn or
a blister!
*cold flour feels even better than room temperature flour.
Miracle, if you ask me. Keep a bag of white flour in your fridge and
you will be happy you did. I even burnt my tongue and put the flour
on it for about 10 minutes and the pain was gone and no burn.
Try it! BTW, don't run your burn area under cold water first,
just put it right into the flour for 10 minutes and experience a miracle!

I always use ice because it reduces the temperature in the skin fast. Burns go deeper when the high temperature penetrates further; immediate icing brings the temp down fast so the heat cannot penetrate as deep.
I think flour would be helpful for smothering flames. Suppose cold flour would do both......
