Milky Way ingredients crossword clue
90 Down · WSJ Crossword, August 28, 2026 · 5 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Milky Way ingredients” is STARS. It appears as 90 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of August 28, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “Set Piece” by Gary Larson & Amy Ensz, and it fills 5 squares running top to bottom from row 16, column 21 of the 21×21 grid.
A plural clue takes a plural answer, which is why the entry ends in S. The entry begins with S and ends with S, and contains 1 vowel and 4 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Friday puzzles are the Journal’s contest crosswords with a hidden meta answer, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
