So, I got a know....
How'd the milk do holding down the ballast? 2% better than whole?

Actually, if you run out of milk and really want to have cereal, that mixture isn't a bad substitute. Just don't leave the bowl half consumed, unless it's Rice Krispies and you like Rice Krispy treats......

I didn't see a direct reference to Elmer's Glue on the Borden page at a quick glance, so I wouldn't be surprised if they've gone their separate ways.Now, were you using the Oreo's for ballast? Yummy. A bit dark for my taste, although I do use black "cinders" for ballast in my subways.

i've heard of sniffing glue , but never drinking it
neither method has ever appealled to me , i prefer to glue my fingers to various small parts . i find super glue the best for this , white glue just takes too long to dry
