Growing up I used to watch a show on Nickelodeon called You Can’t do That on Television. People were always getting slimed on that show if they said “I don’t know.” I always wondered exactly what that green slime was made of. Clearly it had some oatmeal in it for the chunks, but other than that, I had no idea.
Marc Summers, who hosted a couple of Nickelodeon’s game shows, including Double Dare and What Would You Do? was recently featured in a Tech Insider video in which he explains the ingredients of the green goo.
Nick’s early slime was made from oatmeal, vanilla pudding, and applesauce with green food coloring according to Summers. That’s certainly not the recipe you find on the internet today. I bet the stuff tasted pretty bad too, vanilla pudding and applesauce… yuck.

I used to watch Rugrats way back in the day before I had kids, and thought there was no way kids can actually get into that much trouble. I was so wrong. When my son was barely walking he managed to get spaghetti sauce and paint the walls with it. You couldn’t turn your back on that kid for a second, he was like a little Houdini who would escape anything you trapped him in.
Chuckie and his pals from Rugrats were the same way. They were always getting into something. I’ve often thought Nickelodeon’s red-headed Chuckie was based at least in part on the knife-wielding maniac Chuckie.
If you are a Rugrats fan, you will want this Funko POP! Vinyl figure of Chuckie. It’s guaranteed not to mess up your house (or kill you in your sleep.) You can pre-order the figure on Amazon for $10.99, and it’s expected to start shipping around June 12.
