I've only done one small, uncompleted project using rice flour, and I only used rice and water, cooked slightly.  My dog said it tasted okay, but kind of chewy, not melt-in-your-mouth like she expected.  I think she really liked the regular wheat flour better, as she left fewer spit-wads as evidence.  Of course, her real preference would be roast beef gravy.  :-}

Any other questions about why I prefer to use wood-based methyl cellulose instead of food-based adhesives?

I never got the chance to see how tightly it stuck...

I like methyl cellulose (MC) because it dries fairly quickly, it's clear, and sticks well.  It's non-toxic and won't cause allergic reactions.  It's made from wood pulp, and is the main ingredient of the laxative Citrucel, so it's even edible.

I guess I should try the rice flour again, and keep it out of reach of certain parties.  I wonder if ants like it?  I've got a serious ant problem right now.
