Gooieducks are common, edible objects added in 
Downpour. They are found primarily in 
Subterranean and 
Outer Expanse. They hang from thread-like roots from ceilings, and are a bright light blue color.
Function
Food
Gooieducks are a useful and abundant food source. When eaten, they fill 2 food pips 
. Unlike other food sources, which are eaten automatically, Gooieducks must first be 'popped' by holding the grab input before Slugcat can eat them.
Utility
Gooieducks repel 
Worm Grass, a behavior that can be observed when throwing a Gooieduck into a patch of Worm Grass. This can be used to the advantage of the Slugcat by holding a Gooieduck while moving through Worm Grass to repel them, although this is largely inconsistent when walking upright and may result in death in thick patches. When crawling however, Gooieducks provide the best protection against Worm Grass, preventing death entirely with just a single Gooieduck in hand. Crawling through Worm Grass this way requires caution and patience, and turning around can result in death. Worm Grass will "freeze" and stop trying to grab Slugcat under these circumstances.

Trivia
- When detached from the ceiling or collided with, they produce the same humming noise as
Lantern Mice. - Gooieducks have a higher trading value to
Scavengers in Farm Arrays, worth a 2 in value instead of 1 in other regions. 
Looks to the Moon describes Gooieducks as a mold with spores that give off an overwhelming odor.- Gooieducks expand and contract, as if 'breathing'
