Most of the neopets foods. I haven't played in years but I still sometimes scroll through jellyneo just browsing the foods and thinking about how interesting and/or delicious it would be to taste all these strange and wonderful things.
I have always wanted to eat the rice balls from Pokemon:
- You mean jelly donuts?
  
  I thought they were rice.
- You do know those are real, right? They're called Onigiri, and most sushi places sell them.
  
  I've had them in real life. But they look so good in Pokemon. Also that was years after I saw them
Cactus Juice (from the Flintstones).
This one’s going to sound weird, but the grass that Spike eats right after he hatches in The Land Before Time.
- From the same movie, the tree stars always looked delicious.
Not cartoon food, but fake.
The Lost Boys food from Hook.
Any of the giant drumsticks or hams on the bone that are seemingly pure delicious meat with no connective tissue, and can apparently be eaten with all the effort of an ice cream bar.
- Came here for this
A burger of the day from Bob’s Burgers.
All of the food from Dungeon Meshi looks delicious
Tmnt pizza
- That's just a classic NYC pie with unusual toppings.
- pix?
Dinosaur ribs
- Only right answer.
The leaning tower of cheeza in A Goofy Movie looks so tasty. Not quite so in real life
Anything and everything from a Ghibli film
- I bet soot sprites taste like cotton candy charcoal.
- That's cheating LMAO The only people who wouldn't want Ghibli food are people who've never seen it lol
Krusty Krab Pizza
- Is the pizza
  
  For you and me
Does Garfield’s lasagna count?
Giant jawbreakers from ed edd n eddy.
- The guy who created the show said he specifically chose jawbreakers because of how awful they were.
- All that effort running scams to get them, they must have been absolutely amazing
  
  Building an actual roller coaster "requiem for a whiplash"
One of those big sandwiches. They come in a few styles, but whatever you're picturing, I'm down.
Nothing in real life ever looks as good as those sandwiches.
- Im picturing the deca-deckers from Scooby Doo. Sandwich taller than them eaten in one big bite
  
  Used to be able to get turkey club sandwiches at pretth much any sit down restaurant that literally was like a cartoon sandwich when I was a kid.
Grilled Magikarp looks delicious.
In Scooby doo and the witches ghost there's a scene here Scooby harasses a random diner goer over his steak. I WANT THAT STEAK. It cuts like butter, the bites look plump and juicy, of doesn't take the guy any time to chew but he looks so satisfied. I make a damn fine steak, but that scene will never be matched.
That droopy, drippy pizza in All Dogs Go to Heaven.
The steakroast(s) from Tom&Jerry. They always made it look so delicious.
Smurfberries.
The only thing from a cartoon I have ever wanted to try and actually got to was limburger cheese. It's not as stinky as cartoons made it seem, and is actually tasty af.
Other than that, food in anime always looks hella good but its not weird or special. Just extremely detailed images of actual dishes. But I do want to try a lot of Japanese stuff I can't easily get or make here in the US. Especislly any desserts that use red bean paste. I gotta try that.
Cartoon popcorn. Looked fluffy with zero kernel leftovers to get stuck in your teeth.
A few years ago, Burger King was selling Krabby Patties. I missed my one opportunity
Duff beer.
When I was little, there was a cartoon called Marine Boy, and he had chewing gum that let him breathe under water. I always wanted that.
Anime food looks amazing. I especially love Dragon Ball Super with all the food Bulma feeds to Goku and friends. Sitting next to Whis eating sushi would be top tier.
Definitely not spinach.
