Research to produce sausage containing probiotic properties is being undertaken in Spain. They are working with bacteria found in baby poo to make the specialized sausage. The idea is to make getting probiotics from food easier for people who do not like dairy products such as yogurt.

Exploding Artichokes
Police have ruled out any kind of artichoke-themed terrorism, theorizing instead that fertilizers on the vegetable may have caused an explosive chemical reaction.
