So, what is it about Fruity Pebbles that turns them into the world’s most powerful adhesive after they’ve been sitting in a bowl of milk for a few minutes? Seriously, had to scrape them off the sink.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.

I’d argue that Quaker Instant Oatmeal is a far more powerful adhesive than Fruity Pebbles.

Oatmeals pretty stout but I’ve never had to scrape it off the sink with a steel spatula.

It’s not just Fruity Pebbles, all sugary cereals will form that superglue-like compound when mixed with milk (heck, if you just let the milk itself curdle in the bottom of the glass it’s a pain to get out).
Old-Timer Fathers know that you must rinse the bowl immediately after the kid leaves the table or it’ll take several washings to get it off.

Or, if you have a slight leak in your kitchen faucet, just set the bowl under it and get it later.

Hmm, maybe milk is the factor, then. I tend to put a bit of milk in my oatmeal for added flavor.
