Flour bomb

The effect of flour bombs is made worse by the inclusion of eggs, or containers of other liquid, making the removal of the resultant mixture difficult.

[citation needed] Flour bombs saw notable use during the controversial 1981 Springbok Tour at Eden Park in Auckland, New Zealand.

In an attempt to disrupt the match, flour bombs, along with flares, leaflets and a parachute-support banner reading "Biko" were dropped into Eden Park from a light plane flying overhead.
