How corn flakes in the water get attracted by magnet?

The Cornflakes are magnetic because they contain a significant amount of iron, which is a magnetic material.

Standard cornflakes contain around 8 milligrams of iron per 100 grams, that is 0.008% of the weight of a cornflake is iron, and this amount is enough to cause a floating cornflake to move when it is near a magnet.
