Cheerios effect
noun - Cheerios Effect is the phenomenon in fluid mechanics that occurs when floating objects that do not normally float attract one another. Wetting, an example of the "Cheerios effect," is when breakfast cereal clumps together or clings to the sides of a bowl of milk. It is named after the common breakfast cereal Cheerios and is due to surface tension. The same effect governs the behavior of bubbles on the surface of soft drinks.
