I have heard this before and heard good results.
I also know people who put sugar on a burn. Again, no cold water, just put
sugar on the burn and that's that. It always works for the woman I know who
works in a restaurant kitchen.
I'm going to tell her about the flour.

If you get burned and have nothing but flour there, I would try it, what
is it going to hurt, even if the burn don't feel better to you. Then
again, it may work like a miracle. smile Katie

Hi, This sounds like an urban legend to me. I wouldn't try it.

Have not tried this but may be worth a try.

Folks, I haven't tried this but I will if I need to. A friend passed this
along to me.
You may have already seen this, but it seems to be valuable info, I am SO
impressed by this....looks awesome!!!
My experience with burns is this:
Once I was cooking some corn and stuck my fork in the boiling water to
see
if the corn was ready. I missed and my hand went into the boiling
water....
A friend of mine, who was a Vietnam vet, came into the house, just as I
was
screaming, and asked me if I had some plain old flour...
I pulled out a bag and he stuck my hand in it. He said to keep my hand in
the flour for 10 mins. which I did. He said that in Vietnam, this guy was
on
fire and in their panic, they threw a bag of flour all over him to put
the
fire out...well, it not only put the flour out, but he never even had a
blister!!!!
SOOOO, long story short, I put my hand in the bag of flour for 10 mins,
pulled it out and had not even a red mark or a blister and absolutley NO
PAIN. Now, I keep a bag of flour in the fridge and every time I burn
myself,
I use the flour and never ONCE have I ever had a red spot, a burn or a
blister!
*COLD FLOUR feels even better than room temperature flour.
Miracle, if you ask me. Keep a bag of white flour in your fridge and you
will be happy you did. I even burnt my tongue and put the flour on it for
about 10 mins. and the pain was gone and no burn. Try it!
BTW, don't run your burn area under cold water first, just put it right
into
the flour for 10 mins and experience a miracle!
