Definitions

Boiling water with sugar (or sometimes baby oil, syrup, margarine) stirred in so it turns to a sticky, slow-running goo that clings to skin instead of running off. Thrown in the face it causes deep burns that doctors then have to scrape, not rinse. A signature weapon in US jails and increasingly in UK ones.
