A New Space Station Hazard: Wasabi Paste
Think being a messy eater is bad on Earth? Try it on the international space station. One astronaut lost control of her wasabi. Suddenly there were letally hot green globs floating around the air, splattering on the walls, and scenting the room with the green horshradish relative's aroma.
I think this opens possibilities for new science fiction drama. Trapped, the evil Colonel whips out a tube of wasabi and sends forth spatters toward the ship's intrepid Captain who, thinking quickly, grabs a kielbasa and swings to defend himself. An intersteller food fight. Just where is a hall monitor when you need one?
