A surprisingly simple Strands puzzle today, with no specialist knowledge required. Well, beyond the ability to think of ‘sticky things’. Not that much thought was needed anyway, with most of the words standing out relatively quickly. The task was made easier still by the fact that the spangram was so obvious, and that once you had that in place you’ll have been pointed directly towards BUBBLEGUM, which will in turn have led to EPOXY. All very straightforward.
