{{examples|Examples}}
 
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* The first chapter of ''[[Naruto (Manga)|Naruto]]'' ends with Iruka giving Naruto his headband and thinking that a ninja's life is hard, but he'll tell him over ramen.
* In [[One Piece]], major arcs often end with a large feast.
 
Line 19:
 
== [[Film]] ==
* The last lines of ''[[Kung Fu Panda (Animation)|Kung Fu Panda]]'' are Po asking Shifu if he wants to go get something to eat. [[The Stinger]] has them do precisely that.
* The ''[[A Prairie Home Companion]]'' movie.
* ''[[Pineapple Express]]'' ends with the three heroes eating in a diner while recapping their adventures.
* ''[[Honey I Shrunk the Kids (Film)|Honey, I Shrunk the Kids]]'' ends with the two families feasting on a roast turkey--whichturkey—which was blown up to ginormous proportions by Wayne's shrink-ray technology.
* [[Who Framed Roger Rabbit?|"Roger, let's go home. I'll bake you a carrot cake."]]
* ''[[Big Daddy]]'' ends with a feast of buffalo chicken wings for most of the movie's characters. There's even a [[Yeah! Shot]] for the fade-out, with the protagonist's sister-in-law [[Narm|getting caught in the act of greedily reaching for a wing]].
* ''The [[Care Bears]] Adventure in Wonderland'' ends with Grumpy embarking on an ''epic'' fridge raid, having been denied food for the entire movie. [[What Do You Mean ItsIt's Not Awesome?|Rap and pickled beets ensue.]]
* The American post-credits scene of ''[[The Avengers (Filmfilm)|The Avengers]]'' has the team eating shawarma in awkward silence. [[Played With|Played with]] in that it chronologically takes place between the climactic final battle and the events of the closing scenes of the movie proper.
 
== [[Literature]] ==
Line 36:
** In ''Duty Calls'', Cain and Vail share a few glasses of amasec on the flight out of the warzone after reacquiring a stolen artifact and dealing with a genestealer mob.
** ''The Emperor's Finest'' continues the tradition by ending with Cain at a private tea party held by a local planetary governor.
** And again in ''The Last Ditch'', where Cain and Amberley discuss {{spoilersspoiler|the origins of Numquam Fundamentibus's Tyranid infestation}} over dinner.
* The first ''[[Hitchhikers Guide]]'' book ends with the heroes heading off to the Restaurant at the End of the Universe for a bite.
* Pretty much ''every'' [[Redwall]] book ends with the woodlanders heading off to a [[Food Porn|feast]].
* The ''[[A to Z Mysteries (Literature)|A to Z Mysteries]]'' book ''The Falcon's Feathers'' ends with an ice cream party for the heroes.
* The ending to ''[[How the Grinch Stole Christmas! (Literaturenovel)|How the Grinch Stole Christmas]]'' has [[The Grinch]] carving the rare roast beast with the Whos. As a side note, most Christmas stories end with a feast.
 
== [[Live Action TV]] ==
* Happens frequently on ''[[Bones (TV)|Bones]]'' - first season a Chinese restaurant run by [[Heavy D]], and after that a local diner or watering hole. In addition, many episodes end with Booth and Bones eating Thai and doing their paperwork.
* Every once in a while, ''[[CSI (TV)|CSI]]'' ends on various members of the team eating in their favorite diner, and the way they interact shows the [[Character Development]] they've undergone and the shifts in relationship dynamics.
* Ditto for ''[[Law and& Order (TV)|Law and Order]]'', though it's generally a bar where [[Team Dad]] Jack McCoy is feeling sorry for himself again.
* The infamous [[No Ending]] of ''[[The Sopranos]]''.
* The final episode of ''Friends'' ends with the titular group (who are separating due to marriage or career choices) deciding to spend their last hours together in the coffee shop where they all met ten years ago. It becomes a [[Tear Jerker]] ending when the camera then pans across the (now-empty) apartment that fans have spent the past decade visiting every week.
 
== [[Video Games]] ==
* ''[[Bad Dudes (Video Game)|Bad Dudes]]'' ends with the rescued president offering to take the heroes out for some burgers.
* In ''[[Blaz Blue (Video Game)|Blaz BlueBlazBlue]]'' a couple of Tao's endings and Ragna's joke ending have them eating (Ragna's joke ending naturally involves Tao). Parodied in Noel's Gag Reel in ''Continuum Shift'', in which [[Lethal Chef|her cooking renders everyone in the cast except]] [[Troll|Terumi]] [[Lethal Chef|unconcious.]]
* The epilogue of ''[[Ghost Trick: (VideoPhantom Game)Detective|Ghost Trick]]'' has {{spoiler|a birthday dinner at Jowd's house.}} With giant roast chickens, of course.
* The credits in the third game of ''[[Mega Man Star Force]]'' {{spoiler|Shows the entire cast having a party and eating food.}}
* ''[[Escape From St. Marys (Video Game)Mary's|Escape From St Marys]]'' begins with quest for food, shifts to several layers of crazy and then ends with... food.
 
== [[Web Original]] ==
Line 60:
 
== [[Western Animation]] ==
* Early ''[[Scooby -Doo (Animationanimation)|Scooby Doo]]'' episodes tended to wrap up at the "Pizza Palace", or some similar place.
* [[Batman: theThe Animated Series (Animation)|...Well, that was fun! who wants Chinese?]] (A case of putting [[The Fun in Funeral]].)
* ''[[The Simpsons (Animationanimation)|The Simpsons]]'' sketches and early episodes often had Homer taking the family out for "frosty chocolate milkshakes". This resulted in a [[Call Back]] in a ''much'' later episode when Homer kidnaps some children (it's a long story) after lulling them into complacency by saying they're going out for... you guessed it.
