1	'''Basic Trope''': A hungry character hallucinates that another character is a food item.
2	* '''Straight''': Alex and Bob are trapped on a desert island with no food. The hungry Bob sees Alex as a juicy steak.
3	* '''Exaggerated''': Bob sees the entire island and everything on it as one big LevelAte. Alex is a steak, the sand is sugar, the water is chocolate milk, all the trees are sausages with bacon leaves, and so on.
4	* '''Downplayed''': Bob smells steak when he's starving, and it's coming from Alex's direction.
5	* '''Justified''': Bob's hungry mind is playing tricks on him.
6	* '''Inverted''': Bob, an anthropomorphic (and very hungry) steak, sees his buddy Alex, a banana, as a human.
7	* '''Subverted''': Bob sees Alex turn into a steak - that's because Alex is a shapeshifter who's using his powers to screw with Bob.
8	* '''Double Subverted''': But Alex isn't able to turn into food items...
9	* '''Parodied''':
10	** [[GenderBlenderName Alex is an attractive woman]], and it's treated as a form of innuendo.
11	** Bob [[ImAHumanitarian is a cannibal]]. Alex ''is'' his next meal.
12	** Alex is already AnthropomorphicFood and Bob merely hallucinates him as a kind of food that's different from the kind of food he already is.
13	* '''Zig-Zagged''': Bob sees Alex, a shapeshifter, turn into a steak. However, Alex isn't able to turn into food items... except for steak.
14	* '''Averted''': Bob is hungry, and before he could even hallucinate, [[GrowlingGut his stomach rumbles]] and he passes out, but that's about it.
15	* '''Enforced''': "We gotta have Bob hallucinate Alex as a steak so the audience will know how hungry and desperate he's become because of his starvation."
16	* '''Lampshaded''': "The talking steak has a good point. I shouldn't try to eat him."
17	* '''Invoked''': Alex won't stop talking about the juicy steaks he wants to grill that weekend.
18	* '''Exploited''': Someone is trying to get Bob and Alex to kill each other, so he's using their starvation against them.
19	* '''Defied''': "I'm not a steak, damn it. Focus!"
20	* '''Discussed''': "I hope we don't end up starving to the point that we start hallucinating each other as food."
21	* '''Conversed''': "Why does Bob see Alex as a steak? A hallucination like that would never happen in RealLife!"
