      Though Fleming discovered penicillin, it took Florey and Chain to make it a usable product. Though both Fleming and Florey were knighted in 1944 and all three of them (Fleming, Florey and Chain) were awarded the 1945 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, Fleming is still credited for discovering penicillin.

        Try a little bit of sugar, sometimes it helps take away the sting from over salted food.

        Seriously, it does work, not in all over salted dishes but some. I'm not talking about using so much sugar that it makes a dish sweet.
