How do you remove the adhesive from a price tag off of a plastic bowl?

We have tried water, alcohol, vinegar, but the sticky residue will not come off! This usually isn't a big deal, but it's on the inside of the bowl, and we don't really want to eat it. Help!!How do you remove the adhesive from a price tag off of a plastic bowl?
I used some olive oil on a sticky problem I had. Then I ran it through the dishwasher (top rack) and the adhesive was gone. Hope it works :)How do you remove the adhesive from a price tag off of a plastic bowl?
You have already peeled off as much of the paper top of the label as you could, so now rub with cooking oil or even WD-40. There is a product call ';goo-gone'; that is probably worth keeping in the house for this sort of problem, but try the cooking oil first. Rub it in with a paper towel and it should gradually come off. Then wash the bowl with soap and rinse. Definitely don't use any abrasives, they will remove the finish on the plastic.
I usually just take a little cooking oil - any one will do, like vegetable oil, olive oil, etc., - and rub it on the adhesive. I let it sit for a little while, then come back with a paper towel and with firm pressure, rub the adhesive spot away. If that doesn't work, then try the same procedure with a little dab of laundry detergent. Hope this helps!
take a ice cube and rub it over and over on the tag glue, and it will be easier to use your finger nail to get it off.





repeat as needed
You could try using a hair dryer on it. It usually works on stickers when they are on hard surfaces.
buy some Goo be Gone. It will remove the adhesive easily and then wash right off.



Goo Gone. It will only take seconds to remove with that product, and its safe.
