Which is thicker than blood?

Published in Liquids and Viscosity 1 min read

Many fluids are thicker than blood. For example, cornstarch in water is much thicker than blood. Some oils are also more viscous than blood. Honey is another common example of a liquid thicker than blood. Bile is also thicker than blood in terms of viscosity.

The phrase "blood is thicker than water" is often used to describe family bonds. However, this phrase is often misinterpreted and is actually a misinterpretation of the original proverb: "The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb." This proverb emphasizes that the bonds formed through shared experiences and commitments are stronger than those based solely on blood ties.
