Peppers, also called Chili Peppers[1] (or chili peppers),[2] appear in the Super Mario franchise as interactive spicy fruits.

History[edit]

Yoshi's Story[edit]

Peppers in Yoshi's Story are fruits generally disliked by Yoshis due to their spicy properties. If a pepper is consumed by a Yoshi, it sticks its tongue out in disgust and loses a petal from its Smile Meter. If the player Yoshi is Super Happy and performs a Ground Pound while a pepper is onscreen, the fruit turns into a single coin, though the effect ends prematurely if a Yoshi eats a pepper while in this state. The Black Yoshi and White Yoshi seem to be fond of peppers, since they do not take damage from them.

Super Mario Sunshine[edit]

Peppers in Super Mario Sunshine are among the types of the fruit located in Delfino Plaza. If a Yoshi eats one, it turns purple, allowing it to spit juice of the same color that turns enemies into forward-moving purple Yoshi Platforms. Peppers are the only fruit that Yoshis never ask for to hatch out of their eggs. Peppers have an essential role while King Boo is being battled in that throwing a pepper at his tongue stuns him, allowing Mario to damage him with another fruit.
