Cinnamon--but not cinnamon buns--may help cure road rage. Researchers from West Virginia's Wheeling Jesuit Institute recently found that the smell of cinnamon or peppermint curbed drivers' frusturation and helped them stay alert. Pepperment also decreased anxiety and fatigue.However, the smell of fast-food wrappers, bread and pastries actually fueled road rage. In the study, those aromas increased the drivers' irritability and propensity to speed, possibly because the smells stoked their hunger and their impatience to get home.
