Paper mache paste is usually made with flour and water, and that's the paste I normally use - but many paper mache artists can't use that recipe. They may be super-sensitive to gluten (yes, that's a thing) or they live in a very humid environment. That means they can't get paper mache paste to dry fast enough to keep mold from growing on their sculptures.

Another group of people who might be able to use an alternative to the cheap flour and water paper mache paste are teachers who want to mix up a gallon or more of paste at one time and use it over the course of a week. Unfortunately, yeast will move in, and the paste can turn into a stinky bowl of sourdough starter. Great for bread. Bad for paper mache.

But there is an easy and cheap option for paper mache paste. Elmer's Art Paste will make a gallon of paste for under $6, and it will keep a very long time with no worries about mold, yeast, or critters. And it only takes about 30 seconds to make.
