{{quote|''"GAZ!! Taste me!! I'm delicious!!"''|'''Dib''', [[Invader Zim|after being turned into bologna.]]}}

This trope also covers situations where they remark "I taste delicious!" when they just get [[Covered in Gunge]] rather than being fully transformed.

* There's a whole blog related to this: [http://suicidefood.blogspot.com/ Suicide Food]

 

== [[Comic Books]] ==

{{quote|'''Hebus''': what are these?

'''C'ian''': What the mermaids were eating when we found you.... pieces of you and Lanfeust!

* An inversion—rather than becoming something the character would eat, she becomes something that would have eaten ''her'': In ''[[Luminosity]]'', Bella decides to test her control as a vampire by smelling her old clothes, which still smell like human Bella.

{{quote|''I would have tasted ''delicious''.''}}

"[[Brain Bleach|I'll try not to keep that in mind]]…" Sasuke nervously stated with an eyebrow twitching. }}

 

== [[Film]] ==

* After Charlie, his grandfather and Willy Wonka leave the factory in the Wonkavator near the end of ''[[Charlie and the Chocolate Factory]]'', Augustus Gloop's mother admonishes her fudge-covered (or possibly just plain ''fudge-ified'') son not to eat his fingers.

{{quote|''"But I taste so good!"''}}

'''Prince:''' Umm... rum! I never mix my pies! }}

* The infamous Ray Liotta brain scene in ''[[Hannibal]].''

 

== [[Literature]] ==

* There's a [[Shel Silverstein]] poem about a kid who eats the universe, then himself... "'till nothin', but nothin', was nothin' left but teeth."

* A weird aversion in one of the ''[[Wayside School]]'' stories, where Mrs. Jewls brings the class ice cream flavored like themselves, a different student every time until the whole class has been gone through. Each of the students remarks on how the ''others'' taste delicious (and some go so far as to try licking their classmates to get a further taste), but each student who gets his or her own ice cream can't taste anything.

{{quote|{{spoiler|"You fed me my own ass?"}}}}

* The cow at the ''[[Hitch Hikers Guide to The Galaxy|Restaurant At The End Of The Universe]]'' [[Invoked Trope|deliberately]] is like this. At some point (possibly after the breeding of or contact with sapient bovines) it was reckoned that all this slaughtering animals that had no idea what was coming and wasn't too happy about it when it did was animal cruelty, and something should be done about it. So, naturally, the logical conclusion was to breed an animal whose greatest desire was to be slaughtered and eaten, and was intelligent enough to say so—and even recommend particularly good cuts of itself.

 

* Said in an episode of ''[[Pushing Daisies]]'' by the alive-again [[Victim of the Week]], a fried chicken chef who got fried in his own batter.

{{quote|"At least I'm golden and delicious."}}

 

== [[Web Animation]] ==

{{quote|'''Homestar''': (as a gingerbread cookie) Ooh, man. I feel de-licious! Does anybody here know if it is either illegal or unethical to wanna eat yourself?

'''King of Town''': [[Extreme Omnivore|I sure hope not!]] }}

* In an early ''[[Questionable Content]]'' [http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=20 strip], the chibi robot, Pintsize, ate cake mix. When Marten wondered what would happen if they put him in the oven, he exclaimed that he bet he'd "taste delicious."

* Happens early on in [http://www.girlswithslingshots.com/comic/gws94/ this] ''[[Girls with Slingshots]]'' strip.

{{quote|'''Marge:''' Homer, stop picking at it!

'''Homer:''' Aww, but I'm so sweet and tasty! }}

** The other chocolate sailors also have this habit of eating themselves. They even showed a chocolate sailor with only it's head left.

{{quote|'''Chocolate Sailor''': ''It happens every time!!'' How can I have a proper crew when they keep ''eating'' themselves?!}}

* Princess Lu in [[Cartoon Network]]'s ''[[Mike Lu and Og|Mike, Lu & Og]]'' once got her comeuppance for having a sweet tooth by getting covered in sticky candy which [[Taken for Granite|set hard]]. There wasn't much she could do after that except lick the candy from her face, which she didn't mind too much.

{{quote|'''Pink Gummy Bear''': [http://www.adultswim.com/video/?episodeID{{=}}8a25c39214b602990114b89711db0121 Goodness! I taste delicious!]}}

* A variation occurs in the ''[[Adventure Time]]'' episode "The Jiggler", when Finn and Jake discover that the Jiggler eats ''drawings''. Finn draws a doodle of Jake, intending to feed it to the Jiggler; Jake freaks out and eats the drawing first.

{{quote|'''Jake''': I taste awesome.}}

* In an episode of ''[[Regular Show]]'', a cult of man-eating hot-dogs are convinced to [[I Am a Humanitarian|cannibalize one another]] when sprayed down with mustard. At least one of them is shown eating himself out of existance. [[MST3K Mantra|Probably best to not think about the physical mechanics of that.]]

* On ''[[Jimmy Two-Shoes]]'', when Jimmy and Beezy think Heloise [[I'm a Humanitarian|is going to eat them]], Beezy tries sucking his tail and notes the good taste.

** Likewise, in ''What's up with Heloise?'' Beezy is turned into a pizza by Heloise and ends up eating most of his own arm.

 

* The front cover of Bizenghast 5 has Dinah made of cake, and having cut a chunk of her stomach out to eat, also licking her fingers.
