MOSSES, Ala. -- It's an herbal cure that could be worse than the disease. But some in rural Alabama swear by a home cold remedy known as Many Weed Tea.

The main ingredient is dried cow manure. Veteran state legislator Hank Sanders of Selma remembers his mother serving it to him when he was a boy, affiliate WDSU-TV in New Orleans reported. He said each batch tasted a little different, depending on what the cow was eating.

The manure tea is a new one on state epidemiologist J.P. Lofgren. He can't believe anyone would actually drink the stuff.

Hey, the cure is sometimes worse than the disease, but if it helps, who are we to question? These folks in the great state of Alabama have used it for years so it must work

I think all liberals should drink a hearty mug of manure tea. After all, "Waste is a terrible thing to waste."

"tasted different, depending on what the cow was eating"....

Clover flavored, corn flavored...grass flavored.?

Mixed with poop and watered down, it should all taste just about the same...like S#it!

At last we finally know why legislators are so full of it.
