Cool. This looks like something my daughter would really enjoy. Does it stain the bowl?

No, the dye is food coloring, which won’t stain most dishes. I used corelle to take the photos and it rinsed right off… well… what was left of it. The cat sort of ‘helped’ and drank my colored milk.

Hmm… It looks like a yin/yang sign, as done by ’60s hippy tie-dyers.

Quite intriguing.
