How do you simulate a clogged sink?
We have this science research problem for school, and it's about finding out whether homemade drain uncloggers are really effective. It would be unpractical to use a real sink and real food particles because it would be almost impossible to measure. If you can think of a set-up where a sink can be simulated (even if it's just a clear pipe or something) and where a "clog" (made of... say, gelatin) is in said sink, then it would be really helpful. Thanks, guys! You're all awesome. :)

See if you can get ahold of some clear piping (you could find this at lowes or home depot... maybe even a dive or pool supply store), and then maybe to simulate food particles you could use a dough mixture of flour, water and salt. That way the "food" particles would be uniform and suitable as the starting point of your dependent variable.
