When oven mitts melt

What an interesting morning, Jenny and I were making 300 plus banana pancakes for breakfast and we were using the camp provided oven mitts, when something very interesting happened. I have never heard of an oven mitt melting, since they are made to withstand heat and pick up hot items, but while I was flipping pancakes on a flat pan on the stove using my mitten hand to keep the pan in place, my mitt hand and bare hand crossed paths and the rubber on the mitt melted onto my middle finger. I immediately ran it under cold water to help take the burn away, but it didn't help much. I tried to wash the black tar looking rubber off my finger, but it stuck on there good.

I threw out the oven mitt that was now worthless.
