Q&A for How to Make Fake Poop for a Prank

It won't taste bad, provided you don't mind the taste of peanut butter, chocolate, or powdered sugar. It won't taste like a winning dessert, but will be pleasant enough.

Absolutely. That's a great idea.

Enjoy a good, immature laugh. If you really need to stop laughing, think about something serious.

Get some oatmeal, make it, then add a tiny bit of red drink.

Yes.

I wouldn't recommend putting the fake poop on your TV because you could risk damaging it somehow, especially if you left the poop there for a long time. You could put it on a table nearby though!

You could put it on the floor, then shout : "Eww! I think there is poop on the floor!" When people come to see, pick it up and eat it.

You can give it a try, though most people don't poop in shreds, so it may not look convincing.

There are other ways to do it, but almost all will be variations on the above methods. Usually the variation is using other edible items for the edible fake poop, or including some color (like chocolate syrup) onto the cardboard roll poop.

You can use lemonade and add some food coloring (red or yellow only) and you could also add a little Gatorade.

It could possibly stain.

Yes. All you do is put one on the ground, and trick someone into thinking it's poop.

You can try, but it will be pretty runny. Maybe you can add something sticky to bind it all together?

Yes. Simply put it in the fridge or freezer. Check on it every 10 minutes or so, you don't want it to become too solid.

Borax is a powder usually used in laundry to remove stains. It's also used for killing bugs. You can buy it at your grocery store in the laundry detergent section.

Just add a small amount of water and mix it in to make the fake poop more runny.

You can mix torn-up marshmallows and cornstarch until it feels like slime, then you can add chocolate syrup or chocolate icing.

Consider making one of the inedible options, or finding a substitute, such as almond butter.

No. It does not smell like poop. It would smell like cocoa and peanut butter.

All the ingredients for the edible poop are likely to cost around $10 USD, for the 3 ingredients, which are peanut butter, cocoa and powdered sugar. Some may be more expensive or cheaper, but this is a rough estimate of what it may cost in the United States, New York.

Try adding flour to thicken the "poop." Of course, this will lighten the mixture. To make it darker, try adding in some more cocoa powder.

Just touch it a little from time to time to check if it became firm enough.

Use chocolate sauce and add some water to make it more liquid, if necessary. This will look like watery poop if staged well.
