Welcome Stack-Master-B

So I have to say that it is about time for Brian's Blog to be up and running...he has even made some posts. He can be pretty funny too so long as you remember that Brian is 'special'. On a sad note I lost 20 bucks yesterday in Atlantic City guess that means I can kiss my island estate in Fiji goodbye.

Enjoy your BBQ.

So, you've read Bob's blog posting about how hot dogs give you cancer.

How about this?
Finnish researchers reported that fermenting cabbage produces compounds known as isothiocyanates, shown in laboratory studies to prevent the growth of cancer. Fermentation actually enhances its protective effects. Glucosinolates in sauerkraut activate the body's antioxidant enzymes, and flavonoids protect artery walls from oxidative damage. This study was published in the October 23, 2002 Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry.

If you're going to have a hot dog (which apparently causes cancer) - have some sauerkraut to prevent cancer. Maybe they'll cancel each other out.
