The Lickety Spit came into Mopatop's Shop in the episode "Episode 122: Teething Trouble" where he was looking for some teeth. After trying out some Crocodile teeth, it ended up with some beginner's teeth. However, because a Lickety Spit licks and slurps when it eats, teeth are not the best choice for it. The puppet was originally used as one of the Fazoobs on The Muppet Show.
