There are lots of instructions for this on the internet. I didn't see any here, so I made one. Nowhere did I say I made up this EXACT method. I saw instructions on how to make rainbow cupcakes, so I thought it would work the same way for pancakes. And it did.

All the same, it's always nice to include a link or explain how you got the idea. Look around Instructables. There are often many repeated and modified ideas, but the respectable ones always include a link. It's just a community respect thing.

How do you know the author obtained the idea from the link you posted? When I do a Google search, I receive 3,330,000 results in 0.22 seconds. I sure don't see anywhere near that many links on that blog about others that came up with this idea. You seem to imply that this is not a "respectable" instructable because it doesn't link to your or your friends blog that is not even under the instructables web domain. Neither this author nor your friend was the first person in history to decide to experiment with food coloring but that does not make either post any less respectable. Making unsubstantiated claims however, does.

This is a very cool idea that I would not have thought of trying if I wouldn't have browsed across it in Instructables. Thank you to the author for taking the time to post such a fun idea on Instructables.
