6	Over its long run, ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' has taken gross-out comedy to heights not seen in a children's cartoon since ''WesternAnimation/TheRenAndStimpyShow''. Here are some of show's moments that manage to be [[NauseaFuel even more stomach-turning]] than the Chum Bucket's cooking.
7	----
8	* "SB-129": Squidward ends up in prehistoric Bikini Bottom and comes across Spongegar and Patar. Patar greets Squidward with a GrossUpCloseUp of his mangy grin, bearing teeth and gums and exuding halitosis.
9	* Squidward's "Krabby Patty" from "The Algae's Always Greener". Is it any wonder why [=SpongeBob=] should always be the one behind the grill?
10	-->'''Plankton:''' What? It's just an ordinary Krabby...''[[https://i.redd.it/un3d5o65mna01.jpg OH MY GOODNESS!]]'' '''SQUIDWARD!'''
11	* [[http://i392.photobucket.com/albums/pp5/rawwrMitchMAYHEM/nastypatty.jpg The Nasty Patty]] from the eponymous episode, which [=SpongeBob=] and Mr. Krabs made to get back at the seemingly fake health inspector. It's not as gross as some of the later examples, but with its sickly green color and rotten appearance, it's still not a pretty sight.
12	--> '''Mr. Krabs''' ''(as he and [=SpongeBob=] are wearing clothspins to protect themselves from the patty's rancid odor)'' Why, that's the most diabolical Krabby Patty ever spawned!\
13	'''[=SpongeBob=]:''' I call it... the ''Nasty Patty''. ''(they snicker)''
14	* In "Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy IV", the shrunken residents of Bikini Bottom [[FantasticVoyagePlot enter Spongebob's body]], via his pores, and continue to attack his innards, most notably, Squidward taking a saw to a vein.
15	* The scene of Spongebob [[NasalTrauma cutting the huge boil off of his nose]] with a large pair of scissors in season 3's "Krusty Krab Training Video."
16	* At the beginning of "Mid-Life Crustacean", as Mr. Krabs is waking up for the morning, we're treated to a GrossUpCloseUp of his very crusty sleep-covered eyes gradually opening until most of it breaks off of his face.
17	* [=SpongeBob=] [[EyeScream steps directly into the eyes of the Tattletale Strangler, embedding his feet up to the ankles, while also wearing cleated shoes]].
18	** Not to mention that his feet are stuck in the guy's corneas! Of course, it's all PlayedForLaughs as [[InstantBandages he has band-aids on his eyes]] after he gets them out.
19	* The [[WesternAnimation/TheSpongeBobSquarePantsMovie first movie]] has an excellent example of this, when [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick are down in the trench, in which they suddenly see an old lady at an ice-cream stand, in the middle of nowhere. [[IdiotHero Of course]], they don't question this, and immediately go over there to have some ice cream, only for it to turn out that [[spoiler:the ice cream ''and'' its vendor are actually part of the tongue of a gigantic anglerfish. Yes, the "ice cream" is physically attached to the "woman's" arm]]. It gets even worse when, after [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick freak out over this and run for their lives, the old lady [[BlatantLies continues to keep up with the act]], saying that they can pet her kitten while eating, and sure enough, [[spoiler:the anglerfish turns out to have a cat-shaped tongue/organ, which is covered in saliva/pus]]. Of course [[MakesSenseInContext the whole scene is a parody of how real-life anglerfish lure in their prey]], but it's so gross and disturbing.
20	* "Fear of a Krabby Patty" has a scene in which Squidward tells Mr. Krabs he has to go home because he's SO tired, the [[ExhaustedEyeBags bags under his eyes]] have [[ExaggeratedTrope bags under the bags]]. Cue a GrossUpCloseUp with a woman shrieking rather appropriately in the background.
21	* One of the scenes in "Mermaidman and Barnacleboy VI: The Motion Picture" shows Spongebob talking to Mermaidman and Barnacleboy about the movie, featuring "actors" (notice scare quotes on the word "actors"). Whenever said actors are referenced, a live-action GrossUpCloseUp appears.
22	* "[=SquidBob=] Tentaclepants": [=SpongeBob=] and Squidward were accidentally [[FusionDance fused together]]. Most of it wasn't so bad, but at the very end, when they were finally separated and Squidward wanted to be fused together again for personal gains, he accidentally caused not just [=SpongeBob=] but several other characters ''to be [[BodyHorror fused together as one huge fleshy blob]]''. This scene was so horrific, it was actually cut out in some countries, leaving the episode with NoEnding.
23	-->'''Squidward:''' It all started...when I was born.
24	* The entirety of "The Gift of Gum". Basically, Patrick gives [=SpongeBob=] '''''a gigantic ball of used gum.''''' Hell, it's even as ''disgusting'' as you would '''think.''' Not to mention that the used gum has dirty laundry inside it.
25	--> ''"[[NightmareFuel YOU'RE... NOT... PATRICK...!!]]"''
26	* There's a scene in "New Digs", where Patrick reveals his hairy back, and well, his ass. It's a rather detailed close-up.
27	* "To Love a Patty": [=SpongeBob=] falls in love with a Krabby Patty, keeps it around until it's moldy, fungus-covered and ''maggot-infested'', then ''eats it''. Putting both [[LethalChef Squidward's Patty]] and the [[RevengeIsADishBestServed Nasty Patty]] to ''shame'', this one had maggots, worms, blue and black mold, highly detailed rotten meat, and an assortment of other disgusting things that you could imagine [[GrossUpCloseUp painted with incredibly unnecessary detail]]. Hell, even [[https://kennypittenger.blogspot.com/2006/12/success.html the artist was severely repulsed by it]]. [[http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/images/reviews/190/1188867804_4.jpg See for yourself.]]
28	* "The Donut of Shame". Patrick gets a donut he believes is [=SpongeBob=]'s but keeps wondering if he should eat it or not. So throughout the episode, he does a lot of things including placing it in a couch, a toaster, [[ToiletHumour a toilet]], and [[JokeOfTheButt his own butt (seriously)]]. Then twice he eats it and pukes it back up. At the end of the episode, [=SpongeBob=] ''eats it''. [[LampshadeHanging If you look closely, you can see [=SpongeBob=]'s look of horror as he "savors" the donut.]]
29	* "[=WhoBob WhatPants?=]" has the infamous close-up of [=SpongeBob=] after he asks "[[GrossUpCloseUp Is there something wrong with me]]?!", also known as "Spengbab".
30	* In "Suction Cup Symphony", Patrick [[PainToTheAss breaks his bones in his butt]] and it causes them to be visible outside. So he pushes them back inside, and briefly you can ''see the bones inside his mouth''.
31	* In "House Fancy", Squidward '''[[AgonyOfTheFeet loses a toenail]]''' in the grossest way he can. Squidward gets the leg of a couch on his toe, and it's ripped off by [=SpongeBob=] pulling the couch away too soon. It had blood and veins still attached, even. To make it all worse, ''Squidward slips on the bloody nail''. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yojDSv25aak Here it is]], [[ShmuckBait for those who want to see it.]]
32	* "The Splinter": [=SpongeBob=] gets a splinter at work. Rather than making the best of this sure-to-be-disgusting plot and having him try to get it out in a silly fashion, we're treated to 11 minutes of it getting infected, swelling, and oozing pus until Krabs walks up and pulls it out, thus causing gallons and gallons of puke green pus to shoot out and [[CoveredInGunge spray all over his face]].
33	* In "Giant Squidward", Squidward is forced to have a bunch of boy scouts sleep under his toenails. It's pretty tame compared to most of the examples of this page, but it's still pretty gross in context.
34	* In "Plankton's Regular", [=SpongeBob=] (via getting pushed under a door) and Plankton (via force-pulling) both are ''peeled'', quite disgustingly.
35	* In "Choir Boys", after Squidward rides into a pothole [=SpongeBob=] made and lands into Jellyfish Fields, he gets repeatedly stung by jellyfish. The next scene, we see his body in pimples, his arm in particular almost completely covered in pimples, complete with a pulsating vein on the pimples.
36	* "Pets or Pests". [=SpongeBob=] adopts a worm and it has babies, which he then tries to get other people to adopt. Normally worms are fine in the series, but for this episode? They purposely made them incredibly disgusting.
37	* "Sand Castles in the Sand" featured Patrick tearing the entire front half of his skin off, revealing his bones and organs underneath, after a misunderstanding; [=SpongeBob=] [[LampshadeHanging looks suitably grossed out]]. It's kind of tame compared to most of the examples in this list (and ''definitely'' tame compared to "The Splinter"), but it could still cause instant gag reflexes in some.
38	* [=SpongeBob=] as ''a fetus'' eating a Krabby Patty through his ''umbilical cord in his mom's womb'' in "Truth or Square". The notion isn't particularly bad... it's the presentation. The Krabby Patty travels through the umbilical cord, and it's pretty straight-forward, until [=SpongeBob=] rips the umbilical cord out of his abdomen and puts it in his mouth to suck it like a straw.
39	* "Shell Shocked" brings us a GrossUpCloseUp of [=SpongeBob=]'s gruesomely hurt face after he whacks it with [[ItMakesSenseInContext a tennis racket]].
40	** And Gary's vein exposed pulsating skin after his shell is broken.
41	* "Pineapple Fever" has Squidward rip his own eyebrow (WITH the skin) off after [=SpongeBob=] makes a loud noise.
42	* "Greasy Buffoons": Krabs and Plankton compete by selling more greasy items (including "soup" which is just grease on a plate).
43	* Brain Gary from "The Inside Job". [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Plankton immediately afterwards.
44	-->'''Plankton''': That's disgusting!
45	* "Squidward in Clarinetland" features a scene in which Mr. Krabs breaks out in hives all over his body, on screen, without a discretion shot or anything. Later in the episode, all the flesh on [=SpongeBob=]'s arm gets eaten off, leaving only his bones.
46	* In "Rodeo Daze", Patrick eats an old piece of Krabby Patty meat.
47	* People who have trypophobia (fear of tiny holes) are advised to NOT look at the titular monster in "The Monster Who Came to Bikini Bottom". You will be thankful you hadn't.
48	* TheReveal that [[spoiler: the sponge [=SpongeBob=] was cleaning the grill with was part of his tongue]] in "The Main Drain".
49	* "Accidents Will Happen" had Squidward giving Mr. Krabs a massage [[spoiler: [[LaserGuidedKarma as revenge for lying about how he got injured,]]]] and lowers his shirt to find it full of barnacles with insects crawling over it. Which is payback for Squidward making Krabs do the same thing, despite there being customers trying to eat still in the restaurant.
50	* ''All'' of the "funny" faces in "Face Freeze!". Of particular note is the ending where all the main characters present in the episode get it and end up quite hideous.
51	* "For Here or to Go" has Plankton winning a Krabby Patty after a seed counting contest. Most of it wasn't so bad until the end. He has to eat it and digest in the restaurant, and then he goes to the Chum Bucket for Karen to ''use a sawblade to get it out of his system''. The worst part? ''[[AndIMustScream No anaesthetics]]''. At least it was offscreen.
52	** After that, Karen "jokingly" puts Plankton's body fluids in his Krabby Patties. We even get a GrossUpCloseUp of the bag it's in!
53	* In "Eek, an Urchin!", the urchin lands in the Krusty Krab dining area. The customers, completely oblivious to the urchin, proceed to choke on and ''eat'' it.
54	* In "Plankton's Pet", a fish picks up a piece of gum from his shoe and then '''[[ExtremeOmnivore eats it]]'''. Apparently, that guy is oblivious to the fact that there could be over ''a million'' germs [[TooDumbToLive that could make him sick]] on that piece of gum. As a side note, his gag was previously used in "Keep Bikini Bottom Beautiful".
55	* In "Squid Baby", where Spongebob had to [[TheDiaperChange change Squidward's dirty diaper]]. We even get [[GrossUpCloseUp close-ups of the dirty diaper]]. Soon after Squidward bumps his head in the ice machine he is back to normal. He discovers he is [[GooGooGetup wearing a dirty diaper]] (even a "fart" is heard when he opens up the diaper). It's just disturbing.
56	* In "Little Yellow Book", Patrick is in a dumpster when he finds a ketchup packet and says that it'll go great with ''an old diaper''.
57	* While not highly detailed, the sea-monster vomiting up everything after [=SpongeBob=] and Squidward run around his throat in "The Sewers Of Bikini Bottom" certainly qualifies.
58	* In "The Fish Bowl", when Sandy asks if [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick are able to go to the beach and fill buckets with sand, [=SpongeBob=] says it'll be "easy-sneezy", which results in Patrick sneezing on [=SpongeBob=]. After he does this, we see his ''brain hanging out of his nose''.
59	* "Married to Money" reveals that Pearl's shoes are actually ''barnacles'', and we see a rather grotesque-looking shot of them.
60	* At one point in "Salsa Imbecilius", Plankton has to swim through a tidal wave of Patrick's saliva to get inside his mouth. The sleeping Patrick actually licks Plankton's butt at one point, much to the latter's horror.
61	* In "Bunny Hunt", when [=SpongeBob=] looks for vegetables in order to feed the sea bunny, he can't find any, so he decides to give the sea bunny some of Gary's food. Cut to a GrossUpCloseUp of the food, featuring a ''human finger, ear and stomach'' within the also disgusting-looking food.
62	* Pretty much all of "Ink Lemonade", as the entire plot revolves around Patrick scaring Squidward, which causes the latter to sneeze [[FurryReminder ink]], which Patrick then uses as lemonade. Imagine using snot as a drink.
63	** Early in the episode, a rotten lemon is thrown on Patrick's eye, which later inflames and oozes. Patrick then rips a band-aid of his armpit, and both the armpit and the way the band-aid is ripped off is done in a very grotesque manner. The fact that before the ink lemonade thing, Patrick uses it to "fix" the lemon (and how the band-aid gets stuck on a customer's tongue, who vomits ''after the band-aid is ripped from his tongue and put back in Patrick's armpit'' didn't help matters.)
64	** One of Patrick's methods of scaring Squidward is to rip open his skin and show his internal organs. His intestines even ''talk''.
65	* "Call the Cops" has [[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/scumbob/images/1/16/Call_the_Cops_065.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/180?cb=20181010113915 an utterly disgusting close-up of Plankton getting stuck in Patrick's asscrack.]]
66	* In "The Nitwitting," [=SpongeBob=]'s initiation to join the Empty Head Society has him drinking a jar of spit. The other club members are disgusted, and the Ice Cream King reveals that he was supposed to drink lemonade, giving him a badge for "being so dopey" and drinking the spit.
67	* In "Sandy's Nutty Nieces," we are shown a [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/spongebob/images/7/71/Sandy%27s_Nutty_Nieces_070.png/revision/latest?cb=20190628160926 rather gross close-up of Squidward]]. It causes Sandy's nieces to start puking offscreen.
68	-->'''Sandy's nieces''': We're gonna be sick all over the place!
69	* "[=SpongeBob=]'s Bad Habit" has [=SpongeBob=]'s nail-biting habit go to rather disgusting extremes; his nail clippings get on the food he cooks, he puts his hands ''inside his body'' and bites his nails from the inside of his mouth, and even starts biting other people's nails. The beginning of the episode features a bunch of disgusting close-ups of the customers eating.
70	* In “The Hankering”, we get a full closeup of chum, which is made of chopped meat with eyeballs, guts and livers. While [[TheUnreveal we don’t how it is made]], from Spongebob’s reaction as Mr. Krabs tells him the recipe, [[TakeOurWordForIt it’s a very gross one]]. This could be a nod from the fact that in RealLife, chum are baits made of [[ImAHumanitarian chopped fish]].
71	* [=SpongeBob=] sneezing all over Bubble Bass's patty in "Allergy Attack!", complete with a really gross painting.
