If you were to rank home injury nightmares for parents, burns would likely be near the top.One of the first safety lessons we teach kids, after all, is that stoves are hot ("no touch!").But a recent study from the University of Chicago says this fear might be somewhat misplaced - and that hot food itself (namely, Ramen Noodles) are one of the most common sources for childhood burns.
