Icky Science Experiment

In my day if you needed a science experiment you grew a plant from a seed and drew a poster that charted the growth.  The experiment (mwha ha ha) I share here is new to me and almost as cool as mixing up your own Blob.  Make a paste out of cornstarch and vegetable oil then put some on a spoon and put the spoon next to a balloon that you have rubbed on your noodle until the balloon is nice and static-y.  Start to pour the goop out of the spoon and it will reach for the balloon like a tongue!  Super Revolting! The cornstarch mix gets thicker too.  There must be some way to work this into a Haunted House.
