Hippies have raided health stores in Southern California, buying out local health food stores’ entire supplies of sea kelp, an aquatic vegetable whose iodine-rich properties help stave off the effects of radiation.

Reports the West Hollywood Patch:
At Whole Foods on Santa Monica Boulevard at Fairfax Avenue, an employee said sea kelp tablets and dried sea kelp (used in soups) have been sold out since March 12, less than 24 hours after concerns about the Fukushima nuclear reactors were first announced.
Earthbar at 8365 Santa Monica Blvd (at Flores Street; diagonally across from Gelson’s) has been sold out of sea kelp since Monday, March 14, and the same is true for Capitol Drugs at 8578 Santa Monica Boulevard (near 24 Hour Fitness).
