Mud

MUD is the thing that all  GROUCHES  love almost as much as they   love   TRASH  & everything that ' s TRASHY in the world.  OSCAR THE GROUCH  of Sesame Street usually just has the MUD man deliver all of  his  daily orders of MUD to  his   TRASH CAN .

& since  GROUCHES  can ' t stand to be clean, they  tend to bathe in MUD , not just collect it.  OSCAR THE GROUCH  has stated that  WORMS , including his   WORM  ,  SLIMEY  , enjoy playin in MUD as well as takin baths in it.
