'''Large Fry''' is the fifth [[boss]] in ''[[Wario Land: Shake It!]]''. He will start with a ground pound (glowing blue), dropping down two sacks of enemies either a [[Bandinero]] ([[Red Bandinero|Red]] and [[Yellow Bandinero|Yellow]], or even a [[Buccanero]]), [[Shortfuse]] or a [[Recapitator]]. Wario must throw a enemy into the mouth of the boss, then he will spit out a bomb then throw it back to its mouth. The bomb should explode inside dropping him to the floor, vulnerable to attack. Each bomb he eats will cause it to grow bigger, which means it will take more enemies to throw at him before it spits out a bomb. If it grows green then he do a tackle from the side of the screen which it can be avoided by ducking. It can also shoot out from its mouth, missiles which resemble carrots. Defeating this creature will net you his emblem.
