C. Mentum's Famous Sticky Juice is a product appearing in the Super Mario Bros. comic "Elect Mario for Man of the Year." It is one of the ingredients of Mario's homemade pasta sauce, and comes in sticky, extra sticky, super sticky, and shut your mouth sticky varieties, appearing as a sticky red liquid. During the comic, Mario buys some C. Mentum's Famous Sticky Juice at the Koopamart. While preparing his pasta sauce after coming back home from the supermarket, he finds the Shyguy mask in his shopping bag and puts it out of the way. Toad comes in to ask him how he is doing making the pasta sauce, with Mario keeping his stirring spoon and sauce behind his back so as not to reveal the secret ingredient. However, he fails to notice the sticky juice dripping off of his spoon and onto the mask behind him.
After Toad leaves, Mario continues preparing the pasta sauce and gets some of it stuck on his face. Grabbing the nearby towel that he put the Shyguy mask on, Mario tries to clean the sauce off and ends up getting the Shyguy mask stuck to his face. Later, at the Koopacenter, Luigi prepares some Antipaste, which counteracts C. Mentum's Famous Sticky Juice and allows him to remove the Shyguy mask from his face.
