My son brought this recipe home way back when he was in grade school some 20 years ago. Its simple to make and last ALONG time. stays nice and soft if kept in a airtight container or baggie. My kids loved it and I still make it for little kids I know. also you don't have to worry if they eat it. nothing toxic.
