Slop is the name for a food specially created for the US and Canadian versions of Big Brother. It is similar to oatmeal, but has a notably repulsive texture and taste. It is used by Big Brother as a way to punish houseguests, typically for losing the week's Food Competition or Have/Have-Not Competition. Slop was first introduced in Big Brother All-Stars as a punishment for houseguests who lost the weekly food competition, replacing the previous punishment of exclusively eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Slop would be used in the subsequent three seasons for the same purpose. Starting with Big Brother 11 (US), slop was merged with the Have-Not punishment: each week, Have-Nots are only allowed to eat slop in addition to all other disadvantages they face. Slop has so far been used as a part of the Have-Not punishment in every season of Big Brother Canada.
