11* Ichabod Crane from ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfIchabodAndMrToad'', he is tall and bony but he can pack away large quantities of food in a manner of seconds.
12* Gaston from ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'' eats five dozen eggs a day at breakfast alone. When he was a lad, he would eat four dozen eggs a day in order to get large. Even when he's grown, he eats five dozen. He also [[ExtremeOmnivore took a bite out of a leather belt]], although he did that just to spit it out afterwards.
13* One of Beauty's sisters (the redhead who wears a yellow dress) in the second Creator/GoldenFilms version of ''Literature/BeautyAndTheBeast''. She's almost always eating sweets in most of her scenes and she brags about eating ten pies and cakes in one sitting, despite this she never seems to put on any weight.
14* One gag in ''WesternAnimation/{{Encanto}}'' had the family [[VoluntaryShapeshifting shapeshifter]], Camilo, disguise himself as his sister to snag seconds at breakfast. The plate he's holding contains nine arepas, five yams, five pineapple slices, at least ten mango chunks, and an indiscernible number of yuca chunks; and reminder, this is his ''second'' helping.
15* ''WesternAnimation/Frozen2013'':
16** It may not be that evident, but Princess Anna is implied to be one. She sings about wanting to "Stuff some chocolate in [her] face", finishing Hans' sentence with "sandwiches" in their song, and when she blabbers about the wedding ceremony with him, one of the the first details she goes through is that "there'll be ''soup, roast, and ice cream''".
17** Sven the Reindeer is pretty much ''always'' thinking about lots of carrots. ''Always'' [[RunningGag trying to eat the one off Olaf's nose.]] [[spoiler:Though he manages to suppress himself in the end.]]
18* ''WesternAnimation/TheGrinch2018'' has its titular character, whenever he's on a late-night emotional eating binge. His meals are piles of food as large as ''himself''. It causes him to run out of food halfway into December and forces him into Who-ville in the middle of Christmas, a festival he absolutely ''hates''.
19-->''"How much emotional eating have I been doing?"'' [Cue an AnswerCut to [[https://i.ytimg.com/vi/QLz-pfgun_A/maxresdefault.jpg this shot.]]]
20* A subtle example, but in ''WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles1'' and ''WesternAnimation/Incredibles2'', Dash appears to eat more than the rest of his family during meals. Given that his main power is SuperSpeed, this isn't surprising, as he probably has a very high metabolism and has to keep his energy up. By the second movie, however, both Bob and Helen seem to be aware of this and are at the very least encouraging him to make smarting eating choices (more vegetables and whatnot).
21* ''Franchise/KungFuPanda'': Similar to [[{{Acrofatic}} Po]] below, [[OldMaster Shifu]] has been shown putting away large amounts of food in a very short amount of time, most notably during the dumpling fight -- 10 or so, each the size of his mouth, within 2 seconds.
22* ''WesternAnimation/LittleAngelsTheBrightestChristmas'' has Zeke Eaterman, who excitedly gives Daniel food and goes on and on about the contents of his gigantic sandwich. Later, he offers Daniel even more food before he leaves, before deciding that he needs another snack.
23* It's never shown anywhere but [[AllThereInTheManual supplementary material]] for ''WesternAnimation/{{The Little Mermaid|1989}}'', but Andrina is one of these. All of Ariel's sisters have a TrademarkFavoriteFood but she likes everything.
24* Su in ''WesternAnimation/MulanII'' is always very excited whenever food gets involved. It certainly does make her BirdsOfAFeather with Chien Po below.
25* In ''WesternAnimation/PenguinsOfMadagascar'', not only does Rico eat ''everything,'' but he can also cough up whatever he ate on cue. [[spoiler:Skipper and Mort become this after they've been mutated.]]
26* Meeko the raccoon from ''WesternAnimation/{{Pocahontas}}'' is a very obvious one. He loves to eat whatever he can find, [[JerkAss even if it means stealing from Percy.]]
27* ''WesternAnimation/{{Ratatouille}}'': As a food critic, Anton Ego has a passion for food. He even says "I don't ''like'' food, I ''love'' it".
28* In ''Animation/TheReturnOfHanuman'', Maruti is a BigEater. As a baby, he drank milk from '''''two''' buffaloes''. It only made him look like an elementary school student when he's only three months old. He's not done there yet. He ate all the food supplies from the village where he lives ''in one night''. He also ate bread his friend's mother was making until all of the ingredients were finished.
29%%* Don Lino & his piranhas from ''WesternAnimation/SharkTale''.
30* In the animated adult parody film ''WesternAnimation/TarzoonShameOfTheJungle'', Tarzoon encounters the Everything-Devouring Multitudinous Munchers who eat everything in sight. They devour three people, a tree, several hippopotamus, an alligator, an ostrich, a giraffe, and several water buffalo all in a manner of seconds.
31* In ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed'', this is {{Implied|Trope}}. One of Mei's family photos seen in the opening depicts her about to eat an entire table full of food, and Ming later makes a dinner consisting of all of Mei's favorite foods which also fills the entire table.

33!!Fat Characters
34
35* ''WesternAnimation/The3LittlePigsTheMovie'': Both [[GluttonousPig Wally]] and Beemo, the pigs who build their houses out of straw and wood respectively, pack away a veritable feast, provided by Big Boss at the inn. The only negative effect suffered by either of them is that Wally feels ill from a stomachache later, although given that he's about to perform in front of a crowd for the first time, it also could have just been stage fright.
36* Rolly from ''WesternAnimation/OneHundredAndOneDalmatians''. "I'm hungry" is his catchphrase.
37* ''WesternAnimation/CatsDontDance'': Darla Dimple eats food from a gift basket at a rapid pace, including a hot dog she eats like a woodchipper eating a log.
38* ''WesternAnimation/CinderellaJetlagProductions'': The fat stepsister is almost always eating something.
39* ''WesternAnimation/CloudyWithAChanceOfMeatballs'': [[VillainousGlutton Mayor Shelbourne]] was [[TheNapoleon rather small]] when he was introduced, but he gorges on the food from Flint's machine so much that he becomes [[FatBastard monstrously obese]] and needs to use a mobility scooter to get around.
40* In the Cosgrove Hall production of ''Literature/TheFoolOfTheWorldAndTheFlyingShip'', the Glutton is replaced by the Forester's Wife, who -- though she is introduced sharing a basket of bread and cakes with the rest of the group -- gives no indication of her ability to tuck in. When the Tsar lays out the task that the group must eat an entire feast or be beheaded ([[ItMakesSenseInContext long story]]) she attacks the food with gusto, at one point even forgoing a drinking mug and just drinking wine straight from the spigot. When the Tsar then rolls out a feast table full of desserts, everyone else gets an OhCrap look on their face. The Forester's Wife just licks her lips and goes at it again.
41%%* Felicia, Ratigan's cat from ''WesternAnimation/TheGreatMouseDetective''.
42* Pig from ''WesternAnimation/Home2015'', for a cat, anyway. How many cats do you know that could scarf down an entire hot dog in a few seconds?
43* ''Franchise/KungFuPanda'': Po eats all the time, but especially when he is upset. That is what makes [[WhenYouSnatchThePebble the climactic dumpling fight]] so significant; when he finally wins the dumpling and throws it back to his master, it's a welcome sign [[CharacterDevelopment that he has grown beyond needing that kind of emotional crutch.]] Furthermore, his girth actually turns out to be vital in his fight with the villain Tai Lung. [[spoiler:His fat protects his pressure points.]]
44%%* Spike in ''WesternAnimation/TheLandBeforeTime'' and its sequels.
45* ''Franchise/{{Madagascar}}'''s Gloria, apparently her favorite breakfast is six loaves of wheat toast, buttered on both sides, with no crust.
46* Chien Po in ''WesternAnimation/{{Mulan}}'' to the point where he is shown eating a bowl of rice randomly in the middle of a brawl, is the only named character to engage in the [[LamePunReaction "order" pun that annoys Chi Fu]], and declares he doesn't care about what his potential girlfriends look like or wear -- as long as they provide him with food. In the sequel, [[BirdsOfAFeather he ends up with]] ''another'' BigEater, Su.
47%%* Russel the hedgehog from ''WesternAnimation/OnceUponAForest''.
48%%* Helsa from ''WesternAnimation/ThePrincessAndThePea''.
49* ''WesternAnimation/TheProphet'': The only reason the Sergeant allows all the stops Mustafa makes is because there's food there for him to eat.
50* Emile from ''WesternAnimation/{{Ratatouille}}''. He is Remy's older brother who is very gluttonous.
51* Ferdinand from ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerryTheMovie'', a spoiled dog so fat he has to get around on a skateboard.
52* In ''WesternAnimation/YellowSubmarine'', a denizen of the Sea of Monsters vaccuums up other monsters... it then vaccuums up the submarine...then vaccuums up the background art...then, spotting its own twitching tail, vaccuums itself into nonexistence, leaving the sub slowly spinning in a featureless white void.
