In cartoons this typically appears as a comedic sight-gag, in which a lazy [[BigEater Big Eater]] consumes large amounts of food by sucking it into his mouth. This may be accompanied by the sound of a vacuum cleaner and/or have the character's mouth take the shape of a vacuum nozzle for added humor. Particularly common in animated depictions of elephants, [[AardvarkTrunks aardvarks]], and similar animals, whose trunks and elongated snouts often undergo DinnerDeformation to show what becomes of the consumables they've suctioned up.
