Trademark Favorite Food/Playing With

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


We know our parents said Playing With our (Trademark Favorite) Food wasn't polite, but we'll do it here anyway:

Basic Trope: A character likes a certain food, and it becomes part of their character.

  • Straight: Alice loves to eat apples, and her fondness for them becomes an integral part of her personality in both canon and fan works.
  • Exaggerated: One bite of an apple causes Alice to have an earth-shattering orgasm.
  • Justified: Alice belongs to an alien species which treats apples like an addictive drug.
  • Inverted: Does Not Like Spam.
  • Subverted: Alice eats an apple and spits it out in disgust.
  • Double Subverted: She does this because the apple was bruised; she eats another apple and thoroughly enjoys it.
  • Parodied: The sight of an apple causes Alice to get Wingding Apple Eyes and eat it whole.
  • Zig Zagged: Alice switches to liking and hating apples on a daily basis.
  • Averted: Alice doesn't like apples more than any other food.
  • Enforced: The show is sponsored by the ACME Apple Co.
  • Lampshaded: "I knew you'd love the apples I brought you!"
  • Invoked: ???
  • Defied: ???
  • Deconstructed: The Big Bad Doctor Steel lures Alice towards him with apples and kills her.
  • Reconstructed: Alice gives him a whuppin' and steals the apples.
  • Discussed: "How come Alice is always eating apples?"
  • Conversed: This Alice Chick is always eating apples...like doesn't she eat anything else?
