The smell of food wakes a character up.
Examples of Edible Smelling Salts include:
Anime and Manga
- A very indirect version happens in Dragon Ball, during the first Tournament Arc. Master Roshi hypnotizes Goku to sleep, as a major desperate move. Later, Roshi claims that there is no stimulus to wake up Goku before he gives a proper sign, though Bulma realizes that there's one thing to get through to Goku, she announces its dinnertime, he immediately wakes up.
- This trope was played in K-On! - The girls were trying to wake up Yui, by claiming that they bought her cake. But she went back to sleep when she notices that there's no actual cake.
- One episode of Super GALS! has Miyu and Sayo wake up Ran by cooking some fried chicken and using fans to make sure the scent reached Ran's bedroom. It worked.
Film
- Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit -- this was done to Wallace with his favorite food, cheese, when he was assumed to be dead after shifting back from were-rabbit form.

- In How I Met Your Mother Ted does this to Marshal in the episode Milk.
New Media
- In chapter 9.6 of Descendant of a Demon Lord, Celes wakes up by lowering a live mole attached to a string towards Lady Slaughter (who was sleeping in a crevice). Yes this counts. The player submission on what to do said to use the smell of food to wake Slaughter, and in the quest the mole was described as prey and Slaughter's yawn revealed bloody flesh in between her teeth.
