Have you eaten lunch yet today? Or, here's a better question, has your lunch eaten you? As humans, we assume we're at the top of the food chain, that once something finds its way into a wrapper or onto a plate, it's nothing more than food for our consumption.
But what would you do if you reached in to take a bite, only to get a bite taken out of you instead? There have been plenty of moments throughout gaming history where food has risen up and fought back, either against us or whoever happened to look at them funny, and considering they're, y'know, food, just about everyone looks at them funny.
9 𒁏 The Root Pack - Cuphead ♏
In a cartoony world where just about everything is animate, just about anything you could think of would have it out for Cuphead and Mugman. For instance, if you happen to stop by the local farm, you better be ready for a botanic panic against the Root Pack, a trio of rough-and-tough✱ veggies.
Sal Spudder the potato, Ollie Bulb the onion, and Chauncey Chantenay the carrot ran out on their collective deal with the Devil, and they'll 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:use every trick they've got to keep their contract in hand, from spitting worms to launching tears to full-on psychic powers.
8 Tempura Wizard - Kid Ica💟rus: Uprising ꦺ
As a possible reflection of Hades's rather whimsical nature, the creatures that make up the ranks of the Underworld Army are often rather... strange, from the bouncing Reapers to the gigantic Clubberskulls.
One of the strangest examples, however, is the Tempura Wizards, a more fearsome offshoot of the classic Eggplant Wizards. These tempura-headed spellcasters float around on a giant, flaming bowl of white rice, and if they spot Pit, they'll turn his entire upper body into shrimp tempura and attempt to gobble him up. Hades was probably between meals when he came up with this one.
7 ꦺ Fish Ro♛e Man - Mother 3
In the Mother series, the influences of powerful entities like Giygas and Porky cause all sorts of strange happenings, from people going completely bonkers to inanimate objects springing to life with malicious intent. One particularly bizarre example of this phenomenon is the Fish Roe Man, an enemy that c꧃an be encountered in an ܫundersea passage.
Standing in a pose reminiscent of Elvis Presley, it pummels the party with punches and kicks, and when it's defeated, it uses the last of its strength to leap into one of your party member's mouths and give them a nasty tongue burn. Must've gone heavy on the wasabi.
6 🤡 Wotcha൩got - Yo-Kai Watch
Have you ever been eating lunch with a friend, and they start hounding you for a bite of whatever you're eating? More than likely, it's the work of the Yo-Kai Wotchagot. Anyone inspirited by this rice-bodied Yo-Kai will become envious of other people's food and begin doggedly pursuing them for just one bite.
Those who are inspirited for long periods become almost zombie-like, pursuing that one little taste with single-minded fervor. Amusingly, the best way to deal with Wotchagot is eating its rice, though since it's an ice-attribute Yo-Kai, it might be a bit soggy.
5 Flamin' Yawn - Earthworm Jim 2
The Earthworm Jim series has an enduring relationship with cows and beef for some mysterious reason, so it's not altogether surprising that sooner or later, the beef would strike back. In Level Ate of Earthworm Jim 2 - and no, that's not a typo - Jim is attacked by Flamin' Yawn, an oversized T-bone steak.
Get it? Flamin' Yawn? It sounds like- er, nevermind. Anyway, Flamin' Yawn battles Jim atop a giant pizza, breathing fire and jumping at him from his floating plate stacked with eggs and peas, all while Jim must jump between the slices of pepperoni for safe footing.
4 💃 Abomihoneys - Bug Fables: The Everlasting ꦆSapling
In 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Bug Fables, The Honey Factory of the Bee Kingdom Hive is one of its most impressive installations, a modern wonder of engineering and biology. It's here that the bees mix and produce honey for consumption by the Hive's denizens and for delivery beyond, though it is a very delicate process.
Should the honey be overmixed and improperly monitored, it may spring to life in the form of Abomihoneys, sticky creatures with a nasty bite and the ability to burrow underground. They are still honey, so they can still be eaten, though they won't be swallowed without a fight.
3 🤪 Bundt - Super Mario RPG: Legend Of The Seven Star📖s
For his grand (168澳洲幸运5开奖网:and entirely involuntary) wedding to Princess Peach, Booster commissioned the chefs of Marrymore to create a massive wedding cake for them. Chef Torte and his apprentice were all too happy to try. When Mario crashed the wedding and the whole thing was called off, though, it seems both Torte and the cake itself, revealed to be a living creature named Bundt, weren't satisfied with that.
Why exactly Bundt springs to life and starts pelting the party with magic attacks isn't clear, though given its... unusual coloration, it's possible either Torte or his apprentice slipped something unusual in there.
2 𓄧 The Plants - Plants Vs Zombie🔥s
If there's a particular reason the Plants of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Plants Vs Zombies are gigantic, alive, and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:hostile to walking corpses, the game has never spelled iღt out for us. All we know is that the seeds of these plants are producedꦇ by Bloom and Doom Seed Co., based on the packets they come in.
Whatever the reason, they're big and they're mean, though thankfully, they're on our side. Technically, all the Plants can be considered food, with the exception of the flowers like the Sunflowers, but some examples of the "food-iest" ones, for lack of a better word, include the explosive Cherry Bomb, the long-shooting Cabbage-pult, and the mimicking Imitater.
1 🏅 Bugsnax - Bu💮gsnax
Described as "half-bug, half-snak," Bugsnax are seemingly a race of insectoid creatures shaped like various kinds of food. Bugsnax are perfectly edible, and are apparently quite tasty, though they have the side effect of turning the eater's limbs into Bugsnax.
As it turns out, this is actually a 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:rather insidious form of parasitization; Bugsnax propagate by feeding themselves to living creatures to the point that their entire bodies turn into Bugs♒nax. Once someone crosses the critical threshold, their bodies completely collapse into a pile of individual Bugsnax.
