Same Japanese name, same function, no significant differences other than amount of HP restored (and items have restored different amounts of HP between games before). And considering how much the Paper Mario series references Super Mario RPG, it'd make sense for these two items to be intended to be the same thing.

1. SuperYoshiBros (talk) They have different names in English, both look completely different, and they restore different amounts of HP (which may not be all that relevant, but my other points still stand). I don't understand the logic of "Japanese names instantly make it the same thing", as if the English versions mean nothing.
2. ZonkMario64 (talk) SYB has a good point. Per him.

Comments

It's not that English names don't matter, but Japanese names have priority in these cases. And the fact that the HP recovered is different means nothing, as shown with Fresh Pasta Bunch. Magikrazy (talk)

It's not just the names (though they're still a good argument as to these being the same thing), but these also fill the same role (shriveled old mushroom that barely restores any HP), and the Paper Mario series is notably influenced by Super Mario RPG.
