gloopy
Like cold syrup
Gloopy describes a thick, viscous, semi-liquid substance—the consistency of partially set gelatin or congealing gravy.
The word is onomatopoeic, evoking the sound such substances make when stirred or poured: The gloopy mixture oozed from the container.
British English uses it more than American, sometimes extending it to anything unpleasantly sticky or formless.
