A virus from humble black-eyed peas is showing extraordinary promise in the fight against cancer. Unlike other plant viruses, the cowpea mosaic virus (CPMV) can awaken the human immune system and transform it into a cancer-fighting powerhouse, without infecting human cells. By comparing it to a similar, but ineffective, virus, researchers uncovered that CPMV uniquely triggers potent interferons and immune responses, making it a low-cost, plant-grown immunotherapy on the fast track toward clinical trials.

Plants have some truly unique characteristics and I don't think we've even begun to crack the codes held within them. These viruses are also interesting as well, and seem to be the future of medicine.
Oh, and frick CANCER.

Not sure what this has to do with cancer. Cancer comes from your own body.

The reward structure / bonuses of drug company executives has been the hang up.

Sounds like this needs to be outlawed. It might cut into profits.

Why not? Load 'em up with onions, sausage and peppers, they're delicious over rice.

I thought the black eyed peas on New Years Day were for prosperity, but this is good too.

I eat my black eyed peas w/kilbasa and red potatoes.
