SultryPieGirlKelly said: you can use walmart party balloons fairly successfully, I generally put about 6 pounds of chocolate syrup in each
2X of the big 3lb jugs

Blow the balloon up fully with air, because you're gonna lose most of the air, then pull the opening of the balloon over the unscrewed top of the syrup bottle, you'll lose most of the air during this process unless you're exceptionally skilled, then flip the balloon and bottle over and let the syrup go into the balloon. You'll probably have to repeat this process a couple of times for the two bottles of syrup. I've done 3 bottles or 9lbs before but then failures and stability holding it gets wonky, 6lbs seems to be the sweet spot especially if solo.

Tying them off can be a bitch because the inside of the neck is slippery now. but you DO want air in the balloon, helps with getting it to POP because you want to poke the air filled part, sometimes if you poke the goop filled section it just pours out instead of bursting.

Also if you put too LITTLE an amount of goop in the balloon, it can blast everywhere across the room, walls, ceiling etc, instead of down onto the target... the more you load it, the more it seems to drop DOWN where you want it, so yet again I find 6lbs is the sweetspot.

With average store party balloons they are more robust than you'd think but they still are prone to failures if you really push them.
You also have to take into account handling them, they wobble and bulge through your hands/arms and can squeeze out and pop on the floor etc and when holding them over your own head they can be a handful for sure, keep that in mind.

I've put cake batter slimes, hershey syrups, warm water, cold water, various puddings, and even once honey though my bank account screamed out in despair over that last one.
Often I have used party balloons as large water balloons to start cleanup at the end of a session, it adds some more fun to the end so cleanup has some laughs too.

Sorry this wasn't too coherent, I'm just trying to get some quick thoughts down after seeing this.
