Make Metamucil Slime

Slime is really popular nowadays, especially for children. It's fun to stretch, roll, and even poke. Make yourself a quick batch of slime using only two ingredients, which is less complicated unlike most slimes out there.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon Metamucil (with psyllium fiber)
  • 1 cup water
  • Food colouring (optional)

Steps

  1. Add water into a bowl. Get some lukewarm water from the tap and pour some water into a large bowl.
  2. Add Metamucil. Scoop some Metamucil with a spoon and add some Metamucil into the water. This is also a good time to add food colouring if you don't want orange slime.
  3. Mix them together. Using a whisk, spoon, or any other stirring utensil, mix the Metamucil and water together thoroughly. It should be an orange liquid if done properly.
  4. Microwave the mixture for five minutes, ensuring it doesn't overflow.
  5. Remove it from the microwave. Wear some oven mitts to avoid burning yourself and remove the mixture from the microwave once it's done cooking.
  6. Place the cooked mixture into your fridge. Leave it in there for an hour or until it cools down.
  7. Remove from fridge. Once the mixture isn't piping hot anymore take it out off the fridge.
  8. Play with your slime. Carefully remove the slime from the bowl with your hands and play with it by poking or squishing it is your slime after all.
