* NutritionalNightmare: The food from King Scoopa Koopa's fattens up anyone who eats it within minutes, and gets them hooked to the point where they're willing to spend every coin they have to obtain more.
* OnlySaneWoman: Princess Toadstool, as per usual in this series, is the only person in Dome City who realizes that something's up with Scoopa Koopa's and refuses to touch a single bite of the restaurant's food.


Added DiffLines:

* StupidityInducingAttack: The egg sandwiches from Scoopa Koopa's turn those who eat them into Chickadactyls; one of the side effects is making them incredibly dimwitted, to the point where they become [[ThirdPersonPerson Third Person People.]]

* BalloonBelly: Yoshi, Luigi and Mario get distended bellies after they first visit Koopa's stand. The princess puts the three of them on a diet.
* CutLexLuthorACheck: Koopa actually seemed to have a profitable, legit business going which impresses the Mario Bros. Of course, Koopa just had to go turn everyone into Chickadactyls ForTheEvulz. The transformation was a side effect of the egg sandwiches Koopa sold, as he wasn't quite sure what to do when his customers changed.

* RestaurantOwningEpisode: Koopa opens up a fast-food restaurant called Scoopa Koopa's, and makes a lot of money from the cavepeople, Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi. Unfortunately, anyone who eats the Egg Scoopa Koopa sandwiches gets turned into a Chickadactyl, and this gives Koopa the idea to open a Fried Chickadactyl restaurant, using his own customers as the food. Since Mario and Princess Toadstool didn't eat any of the Egg Scoopa Koopa sandwiches due to the former not liking eggs and the latter not eating Koopa's food at all, it's up to them to shut down Scoopa Koopa's and save their friends.
