Villainous Glutton



""In case you were still wondering, yes, he's that fat! He's He's horrific!""

- Sharona Fleming, Mr. Monk Meets Dale the Whale

There are the villains who provoke moral outrage. Others are funny or even somewhat likeable. Some arouse carnal desires. A rare few inspire twisted admiration. And then, there's pure disgust. That's what this guy — and it's very commonly a guy — is for. He consumes. He devours. He gives nothing back. Meet: the Villainous Glutton.

The Villainous Glutton tends to run visually opposite to the Lean and Mean character. He will usually be very bulky, although not necessarily obese; his size symbolizes his lust for power, rarities, food, or whatever else he may be after. In some cases, some sort of powers may be the source of that bulk, too; alternately, the character may be muscular, but the drawing style will still usually result in a clearly "fat" look.

While the Villainous Glutton is often played as an Evil Counterpart to the Big Eater, his consumption can be purely symbolic.

Typically Large and In Charge.

If the Villainous Glutton also eats in a way that's just plain disgusting, he's got Jabba Table Manners; if his meal consists of endangered species or something similar, it may be an Exotic Entree. See also Adipose Rex (specifically for obese monarchs), Fat Sweaty Southerner in a White Suit and Seven Deadly Sins. Contrast Fat Bastard (a character who really is fat and is a Jerkass, but may or may not be an actual villain) and Gonk (an anime trope usually played for a combination of Squick and Comic Relief).

Anime and Manga

 * Gluttony from Fullmetal Alchemist. He was made that way.
 * Earthquake from Samurai Shodown is a tremendously large and fat ninja, who is actually rather agile.
 * One Piece
 * Wapol, who actually has eating as a power: He ate the Baku-Baku (Munch-Munch) Fruit, which not only lets him eat anything, but incorporate the aspects of what he's eaten into his body. In a bizarre subversion though, Wapol ends up being Lean and Mean as well: he actually eats his own excess bulk to fit through a door. Nobody knows how that works. Ask the writer. That'll be good for a laugh.
 * Commodore Nelson is extremely obese, to the point of immobility, and is almost always seen eating. Alvida, a villainess from an early arc exhibits a distinct cowboy motif and so much pork it's a wonder she can move. She's utterly convinced that she's the most beautiful thing on the seas. Later on she reappears, having eaten the Slip-Slip fruit. In addition to giving her a smooth, frictionless complexion, it seems to have made her excess weight "slip" off as well; she makes a point of stating that "the only change is that my acne is gone", though, so she might not have changed her diet any. (Her name was Alvida the Iron Mace)
 * And now we have the recently-introduced "Big Mom", who.
 * Dragonball Z:
 * Majin Buu (and by extension all of his forms) has a love for candy and cake, often turning victims into such in order to eat them, although he'll gladly scarf down the regular type. He retains a love of food and sweets even after his Heel Face Turn, though thankfully he's stopped candifying people.
 * Beerus, Universe 7's God of Destruction. (The times he feels like being a villain, anyway.) Eating is pretty much the only thing he does when not napping or obliterating worlds. In fact, feeding him is likely the best way to convince him to leave your planet alone (so long as the service is good), and explains his rapport with heroic Big Eater Goku.
 * King Gurumes from the first Dragon Ball movie also qualifies — the Blood Rubies turned him into a monstrous beast with an insatiable appetite which only grows the more he eats.
 * Buccha from Air Gear was like this before his Heel Face Turn. He's a subversion, though (possibly a double one): He's a Big Eater who looks very fat... but he's only got about 6% body fat. He looks the way he does due to blood pooling in his stomach from overeating (which means that his gluttony is the reason he looks that way). When he exerts himself, his ridiculously sculpted body is revealed.
 * Polpo from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 5. Due to his position in the mob, he gets to stay well protected in a posh prison cell, surrounded by food. His Laser-Guided Karma hits him when Giornio changes a gun into a banana and tricks Polpo into shooting himself.
 * Beelzebub of Umineko no Naku Koro ni is the second youngest of the Stakes of Purgatory. At one point in the side materials, she gives Valentine's Day chocolate to Gohda, the Ushiromiya family chef, so that he'll return the favor on White Day (and sure enough, he immediately flies to Belgium). She's even willing to use bits of her own flesh if she thinks it will make a good meal. She isn't fat, though.
 * Admiral Donan from Irresponsible Captain Tylor.
 * Hellsing's Big Bad the Major is the only fat character in the cast, drawing a few potshots about his weight from other characters, including one of his own minions, though it doesn't seem to affect him. Additionally, some of the vampires are seen gorging themselves during the series, they simply don't get bigger because of it.
 * Prime Minister Kamiya in Speed Grapher.
 * His weight is questionable due to his outfit, but Earl Tyrant of Final Fantasy Unlimited definitely fits the glutton part. 90% of his scenes take place with him eating something or other,
 * Emperor Charles from Code Geass. Although "old" and "big-boned", he seems a lot larger than the usually slim characters we're accustomed to. It doesn't help that in one of his speeches, he says "one must devour all".

Comic Books

 * The Kingpin from Marvel Comics, who is actually hugely muscular and works out for hours and hours a day. It's just that his densely compacted muscle causes him to look gigantically fat. Naturally, Spider-Man jokes about this at every available opportunity. (This is actually somewhat Truth in Television; while most people seem to think that the strongest people look like bodybuilders, powerlifters tend to have a lot more girth.)
 * Tobias Whale, an Evil Albino and obvious Captain Ersatz of the Kingpin from The DCU, is actually fat, but still very strong.
 * In Preacher, there's the original leader of The Grail, before - he's too fat to move under his own power, and bulimic to boot. He's so heavy that he wrecks passenger jets upon landing.
 * The Blob from X-Men is a possible example. In the comics, his bulk is due to his mutation, but in X-Men: Evolution, he was already very fat before he developed his powers.
 * Another Marvel villain, the Slug, is nearly twice the size of the Kingpin, and could smother people in the folds of his fat. He can also barely move at all, though. As you might expect, he's a joke.
 * While not fat, Agent Orange AKA Larflooze, leader of the Orange Lantern Corps in The DCU. In the emotional spectrum, Orange represents selfishness and greed, and Agent Orange is the greediest creature to ever live: When the Controllers discovered his secluded base, they discover he'd been revelling in the consumption of extremely rotten and disgusting food. True to form, he's the only true member of the corps; the others are all spirits of the people he killed in his constant search for more. Interrupting his meal is also the reason why he's became active again. The Orange Lanterns under his thrall are all immensely greedy themselves; among their number is a literal god of hunger and Glomulus, who was used as a literal garbage disposal all his life. Agent Orange's hunger is in fact a direct result of being the bearer of the orange light of avarice: He is constantly plagued by a hunger that is seemingly impossible to satisfy, no matter how much he eats. When Green Lantern Hal Jordan tried taking away his orange power battery, it exerted a similar effect, and even though he just held onto it for a second or so, he was starving right after. Leads to a Crowning Moment of Funny when he arrives at a casino hotel in Vegas — when he spots the "All-you-can-eat" Buffet, he reacts like a pilgrim finally reaching Mecca.
 * Gregorian Falstaff was a Corrupt Corporate Executive business rival of Bruce Wayne in the Batman comics in the 1980s (and ultimately a front man for Ra's al Ghul). He was always depicted eating, usually with a leg of lamb in his hand like Henry the Eighth.
 * In Tomorrow Stories, one of the First American's recurring enemies is Fatwah Arbuckle, the Guzzlin' Muslim. He's really not evil so much as he has this crazy appetite, but what are you gonna do?
 * Papa Pyzon from Terry and the Pirates.
 * General Tara of Tarakimo in The Phantom is a classic self-indulgent crassly fat villain. He gobbles whole chickens with only his hands while seated on a throne, and his over-decorated dress unniforms barely disguise his big belly. Obesity, overall, is a characteristic shared by many of the bad guys in this strip.

Films — Animation

 * Ursula from Disney's The Little Mermaid, which is unusual as Disney villains are more likely to be Lean and Mean. She even eats shrimps while they're alive.
 * The Broadway version adds to this with Ursula's song I Want The Good Times Back, where it's made pretty clear that what she misses most about living in King Triton's palace is the huge amount of gourmet meals she was allowed to eat.
 * Bruce Campbell as the mayor in Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs keeps getting fatter and more corrupt.
 * Although not fat, Gaston from Beauty and the Beast is certainly bulky, and eats five dozen eggs for breakfast.
 * The Greedy, an Eldritch Abomination of sweets and taffy from "Raggedy Ann and Andy A Musical Adventure", is based on this concept.
 * Oogie Boogie from The Nightmare Before Christmas. He tries to eat Sandy Claws Santa Claus and also . But not before torturing them for shits and giggles.

Films — Live Action

 * Sydney Greenstreet has played many a villainous glutton, with his most prominent role being Kaspar Gutman, "The Fat Man" in The Maltese Falcon. Others characters played by Greenstreet include Signor Ferrari in Casablanca, and Count Fosco in The Woman in White (which is how the character was portrayed in the original book).
 * Jasper Blubber in The Cheap Detective, played by John Houseman, is an homage to Greenstreet's role.
 * Laird Cregar is best remembered as the prissy chocoholic villain Willard Gates in This Gun for Hire, who creeps after Veronica Lake and pays off Alan Ladd in "hot" money to sic the cops on him. Ironically, Cregar wanted to be a matinee idol and wrecked his health with a crash diet, dying at age 31.
 * Jabba the Hutt, baby! And yes, the Hutts are all fat, but the Hutts are also all evil with only a handful of exceptions - and those tend to be a little more mobile. The bigger they get, the more arrogant they are. Jabba in particular can and will eat people alive, and is the Trope Namer for Jabba Table Manners.
 * Pizza the Hutt from Spaceballs, an obvious parody of Jabba.
 * Fat Bastard from the Austin Powers movies. He's slightly more sympathetic after he opens up about his weight problem, and ends up dropping most of the weight by the end of the third movie.
 * Dennis Nedry from the film Jurassic Park.
 * Big Fatso from Barb Wire. He appears to live in a crane and do nothing but eat and get fatter while earning money. He's also evil.
 * Pearl from the first Blade movie.
 * Big Dan Teague (John Goodman) in O Brother, Where Art Thou? is a con man, mugger, and leader of the Ku Klux Klan, who not only gets a gluttony scene, but beats up the main characters and steals their money. And, in a redundant or over-the-top Kick the Dog, kills their toad. One-eyed, Big Dan represents the cyclops Polyphemus in O Brother Where Art Thou's inspirational source, The Odyssey.

Literature

 * Baron Harkonnen in Dune is the ur-example of this trope. Described as so humongously gluttonous that he requires anti-gravity generators in his clothing just to hold himself up. Mentioned as being "baby-fat", so get out a picture of a fat baby, and then imagine a full-grown man having that percentage of body fat! Eww.
 * In the somewhat contested prequel novels, the Baron's obesity is actually a consequence of a disease he contracted when he When he learned that it was incurable and untreatable, the Baron decided to invoke this trope to let his enemies think that his obesity was a sign of indulgence and excessive wealth, rather than a sign of weakness.
 * A few villains in Redwall: Clogg, Bowfleg, Agarnu and Bladd. Clogg is known to eat/drink whatever may be by his side when he wakes up.
 * The arachnid Shelob in The Two Towers She wants nothing more than to consume everything she can, orc, man, elf, or hobbit.
 * Ungoliant, Shelob's mother from The Silmarillion, also wanted to consume everyone. In the world. Even Morgoth, the Big Bad of those days, was scared of her. And for a good reason — Ungoliant ate all the artificial gems Morgoth had stolen, after having drank all the Light of the Trees. (*burp*) She would have eaten the Silmarils and Morgoth if he had not summoned some Balrogs to drive her off. Eventually, she went North and ate herself. Ungoliant's probably the closest the LOTR universe has to a genuine Eldritch Abomination.
 * Swelter, the evil and overweight chef from the Gormenghast novels.
 * Wilkie Collins' The Woman in White has Count Fosco, with Sydney Greenstreet's memorable portrayal of him also being the most accurate representation in comparison to his appearance in more recent adaptations.
 * Each of the villains in the Keys to the Kingdom series represents a deadly sin, with Drowned Wednesday representing gluttony.
 * In Eoin Colfer's The Supernaturalist, Mayor Ray Shine is suggested to be huge, and is most villainous.
 * Inverted in Michael Chrichton's Timeline, to the surprise of the protagonists. The "good" king is the one with Jabba Table Manners, stuffing huge gobs of meet into his mouth constantly, while the "evil" king has perfect manners.
 * The obese and loathsome Aila Woudiver from Planet of Adventure.
 * The whale in "How the Whale Got its Throat", from Rudyard Kipling's Just So Stories. The greedy whale eats all the fish in the sea except one, who tricks it into swallowing a man. Said man, who is not a very cooperative prey, escapes its stomach and teaches it a lesson by placing a grating made from a raft in its throat, preventing it from preying on anything but the smallest of fish.

Live Action TV

 * Dale the Whale from Monk is so fat he can hardly move. This provides an effective contrast to Monk: Dale is fit of mind but not body, Monk is the opposite.
 * Shockeye in "The Two Doctors" spends almost all his time eating, preparing new meals, and thinking about food, although it seems that members of his species can be gluttons without gaining weight.
 * There was a one-off demon villain in Buffy the Vampire Slayer that was so fat he could hardly move. He didn't need to—he had telekinesis.
 * Grunchlk from Farscape, who always seems to be eating something while on camera — even if it's two of his own fingers.
 * Boss Hogg from The Dukes of Hazzard was very fat, very hungry (in one episode, he devours a tableful of chicken wings), and always leering lecherously at Daisy as his white-three piece suit strained to cover his bulk. (Not in The Movie, however.)
 * Nerus, a Goa'uld from Stargate SG-1, is a relatively sympathetic villain for his species, which means he's a devious but Affably Evil bastard. When he turns out to have become a double-agent for the Ori and remains completely unhelpful to Stargate Command, General Landry figures out how to get his cooperation: no food.
 * In Pushing Daisies,.
 * Also the twin funeral parlor directors, who were stealing from their clients.
 * Pudgy Pig of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers fame would eat the world's food supply in 48 hours.

Music

 * The Seven Deadly Sins series by Vocaloid producer Akuno-P aka Mothy. Gluttony's song is Conchita, The Epicurean Daughter of Evil by Meiko. Vanika Conchita desires only the most gruesome things in the world. Why is she a Villainous Glutton?

Mythology

 * King Eglon of The Bible is described as being very fat.

Tabletop Games
"Be careful, or you might lose an arm. Mmmmm. Arm."
 * Vampire: The Requiem features a bloodline of the Ventrue known as the Macellarius. The bloodline flaw is that anyone inducted in gains a large amount of weight fairly quickly, impairing physical function. The upside? They can consume food again. And they do a very good job of consuming human flesh to add a little variety to all the blood...
 * Dungeons and Dragons:
 * Eating is the biggest vice of beholders. According to the 3rd edition Sourcebook Codex Anathema, they actually don't have a sense of taste, but take pleasure from enjoying the physical texture of foods, especially crunchy live prey like humans. Because they can watch themselves eat with their long eyestalks, they also enjoy vibrantly colored food. And they eat a lot of it — up to 200 pounds in a single sitting.
 * In the 3rd Edition, there are Famine Spirits, incredibly powerful undead beings who can eat more in a day than fifty men can eat in a week. They were so-named because the appetite of one of them could literally cause a famine in a populated area if it was left unchecked.
 * Also, there are nalfeshnee, demons that are just below balors in terms of social rank in the Abyss and actual power. Nalfeshnee are often depicted like this, especially in the 4th Edition, where they were descended from the Waddling Legions, soldiers spawned by a powerful Primordial who was slain during the war between the Primordials and the gods. His minions devoured his corpse (they saw this as a respectful gesture for some reason) and as a result, absorbed his power, becoming the powerful nalfeshnee. The same source states that their gluttony is legendary, as is their tendency to treat other beings as food. They tend to group other beings in three categories: "Fit to eat" (which is most other creatures, including weaker demons), "Fit to use" (which is any being weaker than they are that is inedible to them for some reason), and "Fit to serve" (a small group reserved for beings that are obviously more powerful than they are, at which point they quickly turn from egotistical blowhards into groveling cowards.)
 * Also detailed in 3rd Edition is Dalmosh, an Eldritch Abomination and a resident of a layer of the Abyss the Flesh Mountains. A literal embodiment of hunger without much smarts, Dalmosh devours anything he comes across that he finds edible, which is pretty much anything. Summoning him requires 10,000 gp worth of food as a sacrifice, and the summoner is only safe until he finishes the offering. Anyone eaten by Dalmosh finds that his gullet is  practically a demiplane onto itself.
 * In 5th Edition, this is the defining trait of hill giants, assigned to them to set them apart from other Dumb Muscle races, like ogres. Giant society as a whole lives by a caste system where the the larger the giant is, the more authority he has, but hill giants tend to misinterpret this custom, and believe the fatter they are, the more important they'll be; most other giants (who are naturally larger than hill giants) view them as uncivilized fools. Whatever the case, hill giants are too dumb to be decent hunter-gathers or cooks, and usually sate their appetites by raiding and looting civilized areas.
 * Volo’s Guide to Monsters takes a hill giant's gluttony further with the Mouth of Grolantor, a type of elite hill giant. Usually, hill giants have metabolism like vultures or hyenas, meaning they can eat spoiled, rotten, or rancid food without getting sick. However, if a giant does get sick, other hill giants might see this as an omen from their god, and place the sick giant in shackles until he either gets better or evolves into a living divine weapon called a Mouth of Grolantor. These giants are  insane with hunger and rage; when taken on a raid, the other giants simply point him in the direction of the enemy and unshackle him. The Mouth of Grolantor enters a berserk fury, brutally smashing and devouring everything it sees until it collapses.
 * In the Dark Sun setting, there were undead monsters called faels who only existed to eat, and demanded food from anyone who encountered them, violently lashing out at anyone who denied them food or interrupted their feasting.
 * In Nomine has Haggenti, the Demon Prince of Gluttony, whose sole reason for existing is to consume everything in his path and convince humans to do the same.

- The beginning of Haagenti's character description


 * In the Scarred Lands setting, one of the Titans was Gaurak the Glutton, who may have devoured all life in the world (only for his fellow Titans to repopulate it so he could do it again) if the gods had not defeated him by yanking out his hundred teeth and burying him underground. Many of his worshippers are also Villainous Gluttons; they become creatures called fatlings, disgustingly obese and bloated mockeries of the humans they once were.

Video Games

 * The Mad Bomber, Fatman, from Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, probably deserves mention here as well. Supposedly, his obesity would leave him practically immobile, if it wasn't for his nifty in-line skates... and besides, his taunt makes for the perfect header quote. "Laugh, and grow fat!" Oddly enough, he isn't called "Fatman" because of his bulk. His codename is based on the "Fatman", the atomic bomb that devastated Nagasaki in WWII.
 * The mayor of Lilligue in Grandia II is one of these. But then, he has been possessed by the tongue of a demon-god, so....
 * , a boss with animated jowls, undergoes a Face Heel Turn by the end.
 * Sturrock the Meat King, your first target from Hitman Contracts. His perverse sexual proclivities complement his sizable mass, making it clear that he is evil and unsavory in every possible way.
 * King Dedede, recurring nemesis of Kirby. While not as villainous as most other examples, the two often end up in a battle over who gets to eat more. This is even the whole point of Gourmet Race, one of the games in Kirby Super Star.
 * Dapang, Wong's Dragon from the John Woo game Stranglehold, who is more of a former sumo-style deathmatch fighter than a true "glutton." Tequila even makes a crack about him the first time they meet before promptly being shoved into a chair by him for Wong's meeting.
 * From Overlord, there's Melvin Underbelly, an embodiment of gluttony. He's so fat that, when you encounter him again in the Bonus Level of Hell, you use him to play both golf and Breakout...
 * Duke Oliver in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance.
 * No More Heroes: Assassin No. 3, Speed Buster. Despite her apparent vagrancy...
 * Sonic the Hedgehog: Dr Robotnik/Eggman is usually portrayed as this to excuse his gimmicky shape, but we've only ever seen him eat something once in the games. However, it involves him eating a submarine sandwich in under two bites, so it has some merit.
 * From Jak and Daxter we have... Krew.
 * Mr. Luggs from Luigi's Mansion. You can hear his eating from the other side of the mansion, he shoots fire at Luigi, and apparently he ate himself to death by the age of 30. As the description says: He prefers all-you-can-eat buffets to three meals a day. He ate himself to death but still wasn't satisfied.
 * The Mr. Creosote lookalike in Ghostbusters, also known as the "Sloth Ghost." He's even worse than Slimer.
 * Bowser himself from Super Mario Bros., specifically during Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story.
 * Borgan from Lunar: Eternal Blue. So fat he apparently has to have corridors greased to pass through them. Additionally, there are pictures of various characters in-game called bromides, and they usually show people in an attractive pose. Borgan's is bathtime.
 * Tengai Makyou IV features Madame Appetit, who leads a bizarre cult of gluttony out of Tombstone, AZ. She also proves to be Acrofatic.
 * Dong Zhuo from Dynasty Warriors. Seriously, it's surprising that he can even fight with that bulk weight on.
 * Governor Phatt is the fascist dictator of Phatt Island in Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge. It's redundant to mention that he's, by a bizarre coincidence no doubt, fat and is shown constantly (even subconsciously at times, it appears) eating whatever it is that's shoved down the tubes that lead to his bed that he never leaves?
 * It appears, from the color and consistency, to be ketchup, mayonnaise, and guacamole.
 * The monstrous demon lord Horkos from Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey. Often eats his own underlings. Ate dozens of humans during his initial rampage. Wants to consume the entire world.
 * The Hinox from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild are huge, obese ogres who seem eager to eat Link, and most of the loot you get from killing them is food.
 * Big Smoke, the fat member of the gang in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. His rather complicated order at the Cluckin' Bell consist of two Number 9s, one Number 9 large, one Number 6 with extra dip, one Number 7, 2 Number 45s (one with cheese), and a large soda. That alone sounds impressive, if vague, but someone actually did the research to figure out exactly how much food it was, seen here] and edited here.
 * "The Guests" from Little Nightmares, huge, ugly, misshapen brutes who want to eat Six, although it isn't clear why, seeing as they are already greedily gorging themselves on piles of seafood, steaks, and sausages when she fist encounters them. These things seem to have little purpose other than eating.
 * Chica from Five Nights at Freddy's. She wears a bib that says "Let's Eat!" and will sometimes wander into the kitchen, her loud chewing indicating that she's pigging out on pizza.

Web Comics

 * The Vorshes in Jack are Gluttony personified. They are vicious demonic cannibals but in a subversion are extremely emaciated, and cannot gain any enjoyment from their food.
 * Order of the Stick has the Empress of Blood, an incredibly obese red dragon who seems to do very little other than eating. Her warlord explains that she does so because she's confused correlation with causation and thinks that larger dragons can cast more powerful spells because they're larger. In fact, they can cast those spells because they're older, which is also the reason they're larger.
 * Sglutton in The Beast Legion is an obese & ruthless Shadow Nexus slave Master.

Western Animation

 * South Park
 * Sally Struthers in the Starvin' Marvin episodes. (The second one even had her look like Jabba the Hutt.)
 * Cartman.
 * Boss Biggis in Batman: The Animated Series. Not only was he incredibly fat and constantly eating, he fed his workers as little as possible just so he could eat more.
 * Mandragora's son Edgar, as seen in Batman Beyond. Of course, he is also a skilled martial artist with powerful zen abilities...
 * Stephen Mandragora in Justice League Unlimited, a Expy of Tobias Whale. However, Black Canary, who nearly broke her hand punching him, doubts there's an ounce of actual fat on him.
 * In Jackie Chan Adventures, Po Kong the Mountain Demon fits the bill. She is both nasty and horribly fat, and obsessed with food (usually humans).
 * Hoggish Greedly from Captain Planet and the Planeteers. He's rather corpulent, and he even has a heavy pig motif in his dialogue and machinery. Despite this, he has been shown to be a good runner at least three times in the series.
 * The Lethal Chef Lunch Lady Ghost in Danny Phantom. It's never stated if she is a constant eater, but she's obsessed with food (especially meat) one way or the other.
 * Oleander from Sushi Pack. She's usually only a villain because she wants to eat the Sushi Pack, who are admittedly living pieces of sushi. She also has the moniker "The Gulping Gourmet," which explains her large frame. According the coloring books, Oleander is her last name; her first name is Fatima.
 * In the Dexter's Laboratory two-parter "Ego Trip", in one future Mandark is a hugely fat evil overlord, obviously inspired by Baron Harkonnen.
 * Despite being very small, Lucius on Jimmy Two-Shoes has been known to eat a buffet in seconds, keep a well of chocolate all to himself, and put cake on the top of his birthday wishes.
 * Angelica in the Rugrats episode "Chuckie's Wonderful Life."
 * In the Clue Club episode "The Missing Pig Caper", the main culprit is Mr. Glut, a fat millionaire who wanted to buy the missing prize pig so he can eat him. When Larry interrogates him, he is enjoying a "light snack", a six-foot-long sandwich.
 * A one-shot villain in Filmation's Ghostbusters was a Jabba the Hutt Expy who ate almost constantly, gorging himself on jars of green goo called "energy". It wasn't specifically stated, but given the plot of the cartoon, the "energy" might have been ectoplasm.

Real Life

 * This is a common stereotype applied to Roman Emperors, and some of the worst - including Caligula, Nero, and Tiberius - are often portrayed as such.
 * Henry VIII is often portrayed as a glutton, especially as an older man.
 * It should be noted that Hermann Goering himself has got a fairly sympathetic treatment from biographers. He had little actual political power during the worst excesses of the Third Reich, and in fact seems to have saved many people. His basic failing seems to have been lacking the moral courage to stand up to Hitler. Which would probably have got him killed rather early on. Goering was not without nasty, selfish qualities, however. In his quest to become Hitler's War Minister (which he technically never achieved), he ruined the reputations of those in his way so that they were removed, including the existing War Minister Werner von Blomberg, Commander-in-Chief Werner von Fritsch (with the help of Heinrich Himmler), and Minister of Economics Hjalmar Schacht.
 * While not out-and-out evil, railway magnate Diamond Jim Brady got rich through a number of shady deals and enjoyed eating piles and piles of food—a restaurant owner once called him "the best 25 customers I ever had." He liked to sit six inches from the table and eat until his gut touched it. The Other Wiki lists a typical meal as consisting of multiple lobsters and ducks, a gallon of orange juice, turtle soup, "a host of vegetables", and for dessert, several pies or two-pound boxes of candy.
