Cotton Candy IS Good for You!
New research suggests that cotton candy may help re-grow human tissue such as bone, skin, or muscle, says MSNBC.
The technique is actually a bit to complicated for me to explain, but it sounds a bit like if one poured candy apple solution over cotton candy to create a complicated network out of the thin interwoven strands and what would be left inside would be an intricate network of blood vessels or skin.
A great concept...but does it work? So far it does in rats, so stay tuned, you may find cotton candy-based blood vessels or skin substitutes coming soon, right out of those crazy whirling machines from county fairs around the country. Now if they could only find a medicinal use for a funnel cake. Just kidding.
