In the right hands, a bag of flour can be used to create fantastic foods, but in the wrong hands it can be a weapon of mass destruction.
At least that's what one mother was probably thinking when she discovered her darling children had covered their entire home with the white powder.
A video showing the moment the unfortunate mom discovered the flour-based devastation -- along with her grinning young boys -- has now become a hit on YouTube.
Footage shows the mother repeatedly saying "Oh my gosh!" as she walks around the flour covered living room and hallways… and is a warning to parents everywhere.
The uploader of the video said: "Mommy was not feeling well and had to stay in the bathroom longer than usual during which my two boys, ages 1 and 3 took my new bag of flour out of the cupboard and destroyed my house.
"This is from ONE 5lb bag. Don't believe me? Hand a full bag to a 3 year old and see what happens."
At one point in the video, after being asked what they were doing, one of the boys offers the distressed woman the empty flour bag and says: "See!"
