Peddler Kinopio[1] is a character in Paper Mario: Color Splash. He is a purple Toad who serves as the main supplier for the ingredients of the Tangerino Grill. He is normally set up in the northwest corner of the kitchen, normally spectating and often offering Mario ingredients for his food.

When Mario enters the kitchen as it is under siege, the Peddler Kinopio, like the other Toads, is seen panicking. He claims he is reporting the restaurant to the health department. When Mario speaks to him after the infestation is cleared away, he tells Mario he is the restocking guy. If Mario fails one of the stations in the kitchen and speaks to the manager of the station, he tells Mario they are out of that ingredient, prompting the Peddler Kinopio to come over and tell Mario of his campaign. He gives Mario the ingredient for free the first time, requiring additional coinage if Mario fails later stations.

The more Mario fails, the more ingredients the Peddler Kinopio offers. Certain ingredients cost extra but are easier to use. For the dough minigame, the Excellent Dough is 10 coins, the Great Dough is 50 coins, and the Nice Dough is 80 coins. For the onion minigame, the Onions are 10 coins, the Slightly Cut Onions are 50 coins, and the Mostly Cut Onions are 80 coins. Additionally, if Mario burns the Mamma Mia Pizza once, Peddler Kinopio offers him the Rolled-Out Dough and Sautéed Toppings for 100 coins each, allowing him to skip certain phases of preparing the pizza.

If Mario fails perfectly preparing the Steak once, the Peddler Kinopio appears in the dining area alongside the Tangerino Grill Chef and the waiter. He now offers three different Things, each necessary for cooking the Steak. The Salt and Pepper cost 150 coins, the Charcoal Grill costs 300 coins, and the Lemon costs 200 coins.
