seven years later, what happened was they have to pay $180,000. the person who got the least amount of burns was paid $279. and the person who got the most burns and abrasions got up to $50,000. what was interesting was they followed the recipe exactly. >> the first question i have is, was the recipe -- where did the recipe come from? was it misprinted? >> it was one of those recipes where somebody put in the heat but didn't test the recipe. you assume when you open a newspaper or magazine, the recipe has been tested. >> sure. sure. >> whether it was a misprint or somebody making up a recipe saying turn the oil to super high is not known. it's interesting to think how much liability does a person have when you follow a recipe.

do you follow it to a tee. if you were making something and they said put it super, super high. would you say because this has been printed, i'm going to adhere to it anyway. >> i think it would have to hit a certain number for me to go i don't think that's right. >> i have seen it in the newspaper, how wrong can it be. the person given the $50,000 in the settlement, they were badly burned. something so beautiful and delicious can be lethal. >> what would have taken seven years to reconcile? >> going through the courts. there were 13 different cases. finally, this week, the case of the exploding churros was settled. >> did you ever think, the exploding churros. they will not explode, so if i don't get to starbucks there you go. she's going to join us later to

website. they had the cnn heroes the first year. i saw a story on a young kid from florida, grew up on a golf course, didn't have much direction in his life. he went traveling in the third world and saw poverty. he decided to devote his life to making the world a better place. >> today, we dewarmed a little over 100 people. >> it's been great to help out eric jackson by doing fund-raisers. i introduced him to people and helped raise money. just help his organization really get moving. he's an amazing guy doing hard work, you know, give him the cash and let him do what he does best. they have four or five orphanages in haiti. i also went out when they distributed the deworming medication in the rural villages and towns. you are distributing food, aid, all around the country.

so many kids can be, you know, eating their fill but because they are so filled with worms, they are unable to digest and process that. >> the food is kind of a waste. you deworm a kid and the worms are out in 24 to 48 hours. you see a kid highly anemic, not alert. you rid them of the worms and they come back to life. you see an immediate impact. >> since 2007 we raised enough money to dewarm all kids in haiti, all 3.2 million kids. >> anyone can be a hero. it takes a little work. >> if there's one thing i could take away from cnn heroes, the stories are inspiring. they inspire me to step up my game and try and do more to help the world. on my journey across ,

i've learned that when you ask someone in texas if they want "big" savings on car insurance, it's a bit like asking if they want a big hat... ...'scuse me... ...or a big steak... ...or big hair... i think we have our answer. geico. fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance.

pretty frightening, isn't it? dozens of protesters storming the embassy in cairo. protesters smashed windows and tore down the syrian flag before they dispersed. if you have been following the jerry sandusky case, you don't want to hear this. he wants to spend more time with his grandchildren. the former penn state assistant coach is accused of molesting boys. johnson & johnson is recalling aveeno baby location. the recall affects one lot that went to stores in the south and midwest. the company says no reports of injuries, thankfully. let's go to southern

california. music great, etta james will be laid to rest. al sharpton will preside. christina aguilera will sing one of her songs. james died january 20th of complications of leukemia. she would have been 74 this last wednesday. the 911 call placed the day demi moore was rushed to the hospital has been released. the woman tells the operator to send an ambulance because moore was convulsing and burning up. >> hold on ma'am, hold on. tell me what happened there. >> she smoked something. it's not marijuana but it's similar to. it's similar to incense and she seems to be having convulses of some sort. >> okay. are you with the person at this time? >> i'm actually in the other room. >> you have to be next to her so i can ask some questions. we have paramedics on the way.

she overdosed on -- >> she's convulsing. >> keep watching her closely. don't do anything or put anything in her mouth. >> we're not. >> was it accident or intentional? >> she smoked something. the reaction was accidental. >> the spokesman says it actress who recently separated from ashton kutcher is seeking treatment for exhaustion. remember this scene at the apollo theatre last week? ♪ i'm so in love with you >> the man can sing. he can hold a note. that's president obama singing "let's get together." this morning, we are learning his rendition boosted sales of that song by 490%. the sound scan that measures

reports 1972 hit was downloaded 16,000 times last week. that is going to lead us into politics now. the battle for florida's 50 delegates, three days to go. romney sporting a nearly 10-point lead taken before the cnn florida debate. it's a turn around from when gingrich had the lead. illegal immigration a big topic during the debate. romney showed off his skills he picked up from his coach. >> is he still the most antiimmigrant candidate? >> i think of the four of us, yes. >> i'm not antiimmigrant. my father was born in mexico. my wife's father was born in whales. that idea is repulsive. >> i want to allow the

grandmother to be here legally with rights to have residency, but not citizenship so he or she can finish their life with dignity within the law. >> there are not 11 million -- there are not 11 -- our problem is not 11 million grandmothers. our problem is -- all right -- >> joining me to talk about the battle in florida. columnist and adviser to newt gingrich. gentlemen, good to see you this morning. >> good morning. >> let's talk about the latino vote in florida, specifically. how did that debate play out for romney, particularly when they are going to go to the polls in a couple days? >> romney is leading in the latino vote. he has 15% lead among the latino voters. it's interesting enough that with newt gingrich, more compassionate approach toward immigration, you would think he would be leading. when you look at the numbers,

over a half of the latino vote is cuban americans. those are leaning more toward romney. he seems to have the endorsement of the high, key political cuban voters and seems to be leading the way for him. among cuban voters, illegal immigration is not the high priority for them. illegal immigration that the republicans talk about isn't of high priority for that group of americans. >> one of the high priorities is going to be the housing. housing in florida has suffered. how will that play out? >> it plays out in the sense newt gingrich did not start the effort of talking about housing. he should have been more involved. mitt's been off his game in florida from the moment he got the south carolina boost. romney has been posting ads every five seconds down there. gingrich is really silent until

really today. it's when his big buy goes up. there are tough ads from both campaigns. they are throwing in everything but the kitchen sink right now. >> we were talking about that. there's such negativity in this campaign. it's not unusual. we see it on tv all the time. what do you think is driving it. does it really make a difference to voters? >> well, it does have an effect. campaigns don't affect me at all. it has a collective effect when you hear it over and over again. in this case, it is having an effect. when you are overwhelmed in one case such as gingrich where there's so many romney ads. the other is a knock-out punch when you get on air. there's one airing this morning about romney and medicare reimbursement and fraud that took place. we don't know if it's true or not. whether that campaign ad might

affect some senior voters, we don't know. it will either put gingrich back in the race. >> this is disturbing for some people, lee. >> we don't know if it's true or not. we live in america, don't we have to classify what we say and make sure it's true before we put it on the air? >> this is politics. you say it and hopefully people will verify after the election. that's how it's going. >> to make something up and put it out there or do you actually think they want to try to get something valid beneath that statement to boost them? >> unfortunately, it's part of the tradition. the accumulation of statements, negative statements toward particular candidates or their history. again, once you put it out there, you can't pull it back. even after you correct it. the end goal in these political campaigns is victory. many times, it's victory at all

costs. >> i have been in a lot of campaigns. i have gone against the best like james carville. i have never seen a race that nasty. >> really? >> people say that every election. >> do you think it's escalating? >> it definitely is. >> i mean for a presidential race. i have seen nasty gubernatorial races. never for a president. this is about as nasty as ever. >> it definitely is. let me tell you who is benefiting from this. the president. in the state of the union address, he looked more presidential. i think that is going to begin to resinate. as the republicans are battling this out for the nomination, i think you are going to see them begin to lose points in the grand scheme of this election. >> i wanted to ask you about this, we are out of time. thank you, gentlemen. >> thanks.

>> so good to have your perspective. good to have you here. ron paul is skipping florida this weekend and spending time in maine. we are following along. >> reporter: it's almost 80 degrees in florida with three of the republican presidential candidates campaigning this week. it's 30s here in maine. why is ron paul here? let's let the candidate himself explain. >> i was asked by the media why am i in maine and not florida. >> i said i can't get down there. enthusiastic supporters, love for liberty. we wanted to come and share it with you. thank you very much. >> reporter: those delegates he's talking about, 24 in maine. he's competing heavily in states like maine, colorado, minnesota.

he tends to do well in those contests. he's hoping to rack up delegates through the caucus process. you mean to win the nomination. should he not win the nomination, he could play a prominent role at the republican convention with the delegates. one last thing, congressman paul met with governor paul, the governor of the state himself a prominent tea partier. >> say it isn't so. spring break canceled? it's not just the kids who are upset. their parents are ticked, too. that story, straight ahead. think the first american gold rush was in california? you know what? it wasn't even on the west coast. an amazing journey through the historic south. hey guys, breakfast!
