Dancing cornflakes will provide endless “amusement and entertainment” at the
breakfast table, or so reckons Lawrence Glaser of Virginia in WO 99/53776. His
idea is to bond together cereal flakes of different densities. Heavy flakes
coated with lighter cereal will float in the milk and then sink as the coating
dissolves. Make them the other way round and they’ll sink and then rise. A heavy
and a light flake bonded together will spin, as one side dissolves faster than
the other. Making the lot in multiple colours adds a psychedelic element.
