We called it "gack", not "oobleck", so maybe it's just a naming thing.

  Interesting, I recall there being a Nickelodeon product called Gak that was ooblek-like. Maybe this is brand genericization?

    In the UK we had Silly Putty - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silly_Putty https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silly_Putty

      Oobleck is a bit different than Silly Putty (which we also have in the States). The biggest difference is if you quickly hit oobleck it turns into a hard solid. We used to make it for our kids and they loved smacking it.
