Food are items in the Super Smash Bros. series that made their first appearance in Super Smash Bros. Melee and unsurprisingly again Super Smash Bros. Brawl. In both games, the player can collect them to lower damage. Items a lot like Food also appear in the Kirby series and Kid Icarus Uprising, and seem to be a "trademark" design trait of Masahiro Sakurai's games.
