The glob is an item introduced in NetHack 3.6.0, replacing corpses as the remains of the black pudding, brown pudding, gray ooze and green slime. Monsters that leave globs will not drop any other items besides the ones in their inventory at the time of death.
Globs were added to make pudding farming less effective; they differ from corpses in that like types of globs merge into larger globs with greater nutrition, and cannot be sacrificed. All globs are acidic to eat and break vegan conduct; they can become tainted and cause food poisoning, just as corpses do, but will never fully rot away.
Only globs of black pudding will also break vegetarian conduct when eaten (as a pun on the blood sausage dish sometimes being called "black pudding"). Globs of green slime will cause sliming if eaten; the rest have a chance to convey a random intrinsic resistance.
History
In NetHack 3.6.0, globs could not give resistances when eaten. This was fixed in 3.6.1.
Variants
Since most variants are based on NetHack 3.4.3, they do not have globs; monsters that leave globs in vanilla leave corpses instead.
