You relies that the glove is latex with your hand inside of it. Your pinky and index figures inside one of the glove's fingures. Then the latex Yoshi toy sticks out its tongue and grabs your arm above the glove. You quickly grab it with your other hand and pry it off. Pulling it off, you gasp when you see green, shiny latex starting to cover your arm. Also, it is covering your other hand. You wonder, what kind of costume is this going to be?...
Latex as found in nature is a milky fluid found in 10% of all flowering plants (angiosperms).[1] It is a complex emulsion consisting of proteins, alkaloids, starches, sugars, oils, tannins, resins, and gums that coagulates on exposure to air. It is usually exuded after tissue injury. In most plants, latex is white, but some have yellow, orange, or scarlet latex. Since the 17th century, latex has been used as a term for the fluid substance in plants.[2] It serves mainly as defense against herbivorous insects.[1] Many people are allergic to latex.
