Study: Kudzu gets you drunk faster

	Those who took kudzu pills drank an average of 1.8 beers per session, compared with the 3.5 beers consumed by those who took a placebo. Lukas was not certain why, but speculated that kudzu increases blood-alcohol levels and speeds up its effects. In other words, the drinkers needed fewer beers to feel drunk. "That rapid infusion of alcohol is satisfying them and taking away their desire for more drinks," Lukas said. "That's only a theory. It's the best we've got so far."

There is a joke here somewhere...

Where can you purchase the kudzu pills?

Jo Cool · 05-18-2005

Those who had the very idea to make kudzu pills were already drunk, and therefore, passed their drunkness on to any that they came into contact with. It can then be concluded that those who took the kudzu pills had already become drunk from being in contact with the creators of said kudzu pills or from contact with those who had been in contact with said creators.

Prove this hypothesis you say... Drunkenness and insanity are two forms of behavior that are easily transferred to neighboring people. Want proof - go to any college campus or Brice's.

lol @ Jo

Sounds like there is a market, lets cash in. Its not like there's a shortage of kudzu around here...

Yeah, from what I hear you can't kill it, period. That's what's known as a self-renewing resource. Talk about low cost of materials! This could be the product that propels the South into economic success, if A/Bush and Bud corps, etc, didn't get the FDA to keep it off the market. Jumbled up facts from my econ classes are starting to swirl around in my over-crowded noggin. We're gonna be rich! $^P~~

I also saw a story on the news about Kudzu. This lady in Montgomery was using it for Salads and as a Turnip Green like dish. From what I saw it looks edible but I don't know if I would eat it..
