We've been overcome with changing-of-the-seasons colds in the last week. As first one and then the second of us succumbed to virus, this article Myths of the Common Cold surfaced. We sniffled and had a good giggle over them, and perhaps you will too.
Not to disclose more than you may wish to know, but a former Russian instructor and friend added her two cents to my bought of stomach flu, wishing to dispel that as a myth as well, claiming that at home it was simply called "food poisoning" and she hadn't heard of this virus until coming to the U.S. :-)
A bit of Dr. Oetker pudding prepared by my sniffling spouse, and we feel a bit better already!
