'''Food''' ({{ja|たべもの}}, ''tabemono'') are items that heal and spawn normally as items and from containers. This list does not include [[Apples]] from [[Green Greens]], [[Egg]]s from [[Chansey]], [[Birdo]]'s eggs, and the vegetables from the [[Summit]], but these items are all linked to food in that they only recover if food is turned on in the menu. Birdo's eggs and Whispy Woods' apples, for example, will always be hurting items if food is turned off.

There are multiple possible origins where the food could have come from.

In ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'', Yoshi would have to eat fruit in order to regain health. When Yoshi eats a total of thirty fruits, the level is complete.  

Food that restores health has also appeared in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' as well as many other ''Kirby'' series games. There is also a mini-game called ''Gourmet Race'' which involves a competition between Kirby and King Dedede on whoever can eat the most food and cross the finish line first. In some later games, food would appear in stages; it was a very abundant, yet low in power, source of health. It is interesting to note, that because the two game series were under the same developer, all food items in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' were also in the game ''Kirby Air Ride'', reprising their role as common, low-health recovery items.

One more series it could be a reference to is the ''[[EarthBound (universe)|EarthBound]]'' series. Food, such as the "Cheeseburger", serve the purpose of replenishing health in all three games. In ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'', food is used to restore small amounts of health. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCIireS3AYw]

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''==

[[File:EatingWhileReclining.jpg|thumb|Snake, eating while reclining.]]

''Brawl'' adds an odd technique called '''Eating While Reclining''' ({{ja|倒れアイテム食べ}} ''Taore aitemu tabe'', '''Lying and eating items''' or '''DownEatU''' and '''DownEatD''' internally in ''Brawl'' files, depending on which side the character is lying). If a character lands hard by some food, the player can press A to grab and eat the food without needing to get up first.<ref>http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/howto/technique/technique10.html</ref> This technique has no real practical use however, and it can actually directly hinder a knocked down player, as it prevents knocked down characters from using their getup attack if they're near food, limiting their options from this position.

Also in ''Brawl'', there is a special "gulp" sound effect for when characters consume food that happens to be a liquid, like coffee or an orange tonic. When eating vegetables on the [[Summit]], a special "bitty" sound effect can be heard akin to the sounds heard from the original ''Ice Climber'' game when a vegetable is collected.

The Food item appears as a trophy in both ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''Brawl''.

''These food items will restore your health when you eat them. There are 28 different types of food, and the nutritional value and yumminess quotient differs slightly with each type. Party Balls tend to hold the largest amount of food items. You may be vulnerable when gorging yourself, but you do need to eat to survive.''

===''Brawl'' description===

''Treats that decrease your damage. The nutritional value of each food, and how much damage it heals, is carefully measured. What's better for you, sushi or a donut? Party Balls contain a lot of food, so if you eat it all yourself, you can really lower your damage. There may be times when you laugh and walk away from food, and times when you watch someone else eating and cry.''

*On the [[Summit]] stage, bonus vegetable items that appeared in the original ''Ice Climber'' game act as Food.

*[[Snake (SSBB)|Snake]] is the only character who makes unique sounds whenever he heals with a food item (Maxim Tomato included), or even while eating the non-healing but still edible [[Superspicy Curry]]. These range from generic eating noises to commentary such as "Mm, tasty!". This is what [[Naked Snake]] would do in ''[[Metal Gear (universe)|Metal Gear Solid 3]]''.

*All food listed above is rendered as a 2-dimensional picture. The render always faces the camera.

*Peaches and peanuts are not normal food items. They only appear during specific attacks; Peaches appear in [[Peach Blossom]], while peanuts appear when [[Peanut Popgun]] or [[Rocketbarrel Barrage]] are used.
