Hemp and Plumpy Nut vs. Starvation in Africa

60 Minutes did a segment on Plumpy Nut, a nutritious food with a peanut base that helped save starving kids in Africa. Doctors Without Borders fed this to kids with miraculous results. Plumpy Nut could be made with hemp protean powder and oils (keep the peanut flavor...kids love peanut butter!) from locally grown hemp.
See the 60 Minutes Video on youtube
Also see The Lang Report's extensive site on Plumpy Nut.
