[TheForge] Cure for a bad burn?

[Bob Ehrenberger]

Ron,
I have never heard of useing flour for burns.  My first line of action is 
cold water to stop any further damage. Then I treat with bag balm salve.

I received an e-mail stating a cure for burns is to immerse the burned
area in a box of flour. (Don't wet the burn first). Keeping the flour in
the refrigerator is supposed to be even better. Has anyone ever heard of
this, or tried it? I have kept aloe plants for years but they keep
dying.
