<P> Oscar the Grouch is a character on the television program Sesame Street . He has a green body , no visible nose , and lives in a trash can . His favorite thing is trash , as evidenced by the song `` I Love Trash '' , with a running theme being his collection of seemingly useless items . Although the term `` Grouch '' aptly describes Oscar 's misanthropic interaction with the other characters , it also refers to his species . His birthday , as noted by Sesame Workshop , is on June 1 . The character is performed by Caroll Spinney , and has been performed by him since the show 's first episode . Since 2015 , Eric Jacobson has been the understudy for the character . </P>
