Cowboy Oatmeal. The story behind it...
A tough old cowboy counseled his grandson that if he wanted to live a long life, the secret was to sprinkle a pinch of gun powder on his oatmeal every morning.
The grandson did this religiously to the age of 103. When he died, he left 14 children, 30 grand-children, 45 great grandchildren, 25 great-great grand children, and a 15 foot hole where the crematorium used to be.
Gunpowder, nitrate, saltpeter has long been used for treating various ailments as well, making fertilizer, incense, embalming bodies was popular for use with soldiers and priest as a muscle relaxant for anaprodisiac...Of course like all the fixes they have on the market today it had it's "side effects."
