Edible BandAids? Must Be Military
Only the US military would come up with a bandage that contained shrimp shells and vinegar. The story is Shrimpy Bandages and really it does address a long standing issue of soldiers bleeding out on the battlefield because they're using the same basic staple bandage that was being used thirty years ago.
Apparently, shrimp shells and vingegar create a super sticky nasty solution that's non-toxic and biodegradable. And the best part is that it'll help keep Americans alive to wage more oil wars for ShrubCo or wait, it'll just keep them alive, that's the important part.
